Sharp Pain Heart, Left Arm. Having Leaking Valve On Heart. Is It Safe To Use Disprin Cardiocare?

i was once informed that i have a licking valve on my heart, its been 5 years, but recently i experience sharp pains on my heart and my left arm- sometimes my left side from head to toe feels so numb and weak. what should i do because the Dr says its not a big deal?

i was introcude to dispirin cardiocare by a nurse friend, is it safe to use it daily?

hi,
it is definitely safe to use low dose of disprin. 150 mg daily. i do not know what dose you are taking. however i di not understand licking valve in their terms, anyway symptoms you are getting are danger signs. it looks like because of your heart problem, some clot might have occurred in your brain.
do meet your cardiologist and neurologist ASAP. do not neglect such things and self medicate.

wish you good health
