Search for heart hospitals that specialize in heart valve treatment.
Rose, the cardiologist said there is no way to determine the cause (calcified? pannus? etc?). It's a Carpentier-Edwards Perimount bovine valve.
Debbie, you're too kind. I'm in Dallas/FW and will need to have the re-op locally. Probably in Plano.
Dan, so sorry you're having stomach issues--that is no fun, for sure!
My cardiologist and I agree that I need to find a stellar, maybe even world-class, gastroenterologist, since no one in 10 years has been able to help resolve my issues. I don't want my stomach to dictate which valve I can have again.
