Hi. Do any SAVR survivors still have major weakness and shortness of breath years after successful aortic stenosis surgery? Thx Chris Burke

A MyHeartDiseaseTeam Member asked a question 💭

I have had many VA cardio-pulmonary tests, several cardio rehab rounds, and I do well on every one. But I still can't walk for 15 min. except on a treadmill, and carrying a bag of groceries wears me out.
VA is widening testing, 💓past the 'low hanging fruit', but 5 years of testing continues. Anybody else have these post SAVR symptoms? Chris Burke
