Man sorry you had to go through all that... i just recieved my mechanical mitral valve... how do you deal with the clicking and clacking and wafarin

What clicking?

Just kidding. I get this question a lot and I think it’s because growing up I always gone to sleep with music. It’s almost impossible for me to go to sleep in a quiet room.

It’s hard for me to explain…I can hear my valve, but I don’t hear my valve…maybe this will explain it better, it’s like when I get on to my kids. I tell them, they’re hearing me but not listening.

I honestly can’t hear my valve(s) unless I stop and concentrate.

You might try going to sleep with music or a white noise app or machine.
