Hi John! I had my aortic valve replace with a mechanical valve three years ago at age 42. My life has only improved since then. Feel free to read my journal, and please ask questions! -Meredith

Hi Meredith, thank you for dropping a note and your great updates. I am looking forward to feeling different than I have for the last few years. Everybody tells me I will feel great once I am fully healed. You just helped reassure me! Keep ticking along! John
