I had my mitral valve replaced in Feb. All fine. However I have now noticed that I am starting to get out of breath after a mile, or so, especially when going uphill. Went for echo yesterday only to be told the heart was not working properly. Still in A.F with maybe an atrial flutter and that was why I was getting out of breath.
