I wasn't given the option of the Ross procedure so I can't advise you there. I can say that I have no regrets getting the On-X and honestly after having had 2 surgeries my personal advice is to avoid going a route that guarantees further surgeries. In your case, I read that you do triathlons, I would say that being on blood thinners would mean no more road riding so that might be a decision you need to come to on your own. There are plenty of other sporting options so for me it was an easy decision.
Are you getting the surgery done in Vancouver or Victoria?
If you want to chat on the phone, just let me know. I'll answer any questions you've got about what you're facing. I had a hard time finding info for returning to exercise. I kept a daily journal about my exercise program which I would be happy to share.
All the best,
Jason
