Hello,
You have gone through mitral Valve replacement one year back and you are 54 yrs. now, as you are athlete , so you must be exerting a lot or doing brisk exercises after your valve replacement , so you get dizziness and fatigue too. In my opinion you should exert little less and walk only than see what effect you feel, along with this you take anti-oxidents and fruits etc. regularly , if you feel better than good otherwise go for Echo-cardiography and find out the Ejection factor of your heart valves and consult your cardiologist if conditions persists. Hope you will find good guidance by this. Good luck and take care.
