Suggest The Remedy For Irregular Heart Beat.
I have had Ascending Aortic Reapif surgery in the past. I have a pacemaker. Now my heart skips beats and pounds when I lie down. I wake up short of breath...when I stand up, it's quickly over. My question, can this be a sign of Mitral Valve going bad? (I've been told mine is leaky and they are always keeping an eye on it.)
