What Causes Elevated Heart Enzyme Levels After A Mitral Valve Replacement?
I recently had a mitral valve replacement with a bovine valve. My most recent blood test indicated that I have an elevated enzyme heart level. What are possible reasons? I am taking a beta blocker and 4 supplements. Also ladies. Are there any medicines to bring the level down?

Hi,
Elevated enzymes can happen after cardiac surgery. It’s a normal phenomenon and is due to slight tissue injury at the time of surgery.
It will return to normal in couple of days with out treatment.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
