In 2011 I was diagnosed with Luous. In 2016 at a Lupus check up a heart murmur was found. I needed aortic valve replacement and a 50 % blockage was found so had bypass at same time. The Lupus caused leak and I couldn't run for first 10 months of 2016. 3 months after op I was running again. I now run faster than I did 5 years ago. This is thanks to surgeon Mr Uppall and all the excellent Barts team and nurses
