Hi Deb--I also have severe aortic stenosis (also bicuspid aortic valve) and my surgery is 2/26. I will receive a tissue valve. I am 71 and otherwise very active and healthy with no heart disease or blockages, etc. My grandmother lived to 106, so this will set me up for a TAVR, should this valve wear out before I do!
I asked my surgeon about the less invasive procedures but ultimately decided to go with the medial sternotomy even though it's a tough recovery, so that I don't have to be on the heart-lung machine as long, at least in theory! Anyway, I want to wish you Godspeed with your surgery and recovery. I know generally what to expect from mine, but everyone is different, so in that way, I don't know WHAT to expect! :D Anyway, all the best to you!
