Can A Hole In The Heart Develop Again After Undergoing Surgery For It?
Hi i had a hole in the heart when i was born. I had it operated at the age of 5. I am now 33 and have never had any issues. i go to the gym, excercise and live a normal life like anyone else. i am a 5' and weigh 9 and half stone. Do you think my hole is still ok or can this develop again?
