Hi Craig

A 29 Perimount bioprostetic aortic valve replaced my calcified tight one back in Dec 2010 at 59 years of age. I had some discomfort along the way i.e central crushing chest pain. My surgeon told me at the time that he would not be around when I needed it replaced i.e, in about 10 to twelve years! Now into my 15th year.

I don't know how I stumbled into your website. Best of luck from Ireland with your forecoming procedure!

Hey brother! I am a 54M retired structure FF who had a Aortic Valve Sparing and Aortic Root Replacement on Oct. 29, 2024. I currently am a contract wildland FF. I was in the hospital 4 days, with no complications. I returned to work as a wildland FF the last week in January 2025. I could have done the gopher stuff around 8 weeks after surgery as that is when my sternal precautions were lifted. Hope your surgery goes well and I will keep you in my prayers.

Craig Howland Hey Michael, congrats on the retirement!!! I only have 19 mths to go. I was up for a promotion to Platoon Chief but turned it down with retirement near and the heart thing going on

Thanks for getting back to me on the time lines… I just like having somewhat of an idea so I can set some realistic goals. Glad to hear you are doing well. Stay safe Brother!!!
