I had a heart transplant 9/20/2005. I am now experiencing the same problems I had w/my own heart which led to the transplant . . . heart palpitations or skipped beats, whatever you want to call it. Do I need to get in touche w/the transplant ctr immediately? This has been happening for several weeks. Also fatigue.
