I found out that I had mitral valve prolapse just before a minor operation back in 2016, for years I had palpitations and SVT which I had an ablation last September 2023. I have had my valve checked every year and it seems moderate. I have been experiencing breathlessness,pressure in chest and lightheaded,my blood pressure drops very low . I feel this is affecting my independent every day life and am not sure if it’s my valve or the SVT operation I had in 2023 for my SVT. I do not go to my GP unless I really need to and will see him in one week. I am 77,very active and independent. Joining this site gives me reassurance that I am not alone.
