I just read your Story and noted the similarity of our pre surgery decision to have the surgery, my cardiologist and second opinion cardiologist plus two surgeons over five years said I needed the surgery asap or could drop at any time, one said I was playing "russian roulette" with not having the surgery, I guess I over analyzed the cons, analysis/paralysis, finally decided on following thru and I couldn't wait to have it completed, post surgery I hardly had any pain, doctors said I had rapid recovery used term like a rabbit, I partly attributed it to the devoted prayers of some friends, I am 13 weeks post op and have resumed almost everything pre surgery
Only negative I find is my b.p. previously very low is now fluctuating from normal to slightly high, probably a result of new heart valve
