Heart problems in pregnancy...anyone else?

After several weeks of feeling horrible and having several near fainting spells my midwife scheduled me a doctor's appointment. It's looking like I have a heart defect or disease and pregnancy is aggravating it. I have to do a heart ultrasound (eachocardiogram) and wear a heart monitor for a few days to get the actual diagnosis. Has anyone else experienced this in pregnancy? I started noticing my heart fluttering or speeding up back in my teens, and other pregnancies, but was told it was mostly likely panic attacks. If any of you ladies have gone through this I would love to hear your stories! I could use some encouragement tonight. https://tweakbox.mobi/https://getappvalley.com/

With a heart defect, do doctors allow you to have children and give birth? I always thought that it was dangerous for myself and the child. After all, anything can happen to the mother because of a heart defect,and the child will die with her. I think it's perilous for you. The fluttering of the heart and heaviness of the head can be a panic attack, but if your heart creates colic, you need to seek help from other doctors. You should be carefully checked for other diseases. Dizziness is always not a very good sign. I would tell you to use functional medicine cholesterol to find out what's wrong with you.
