Jay Heagerty Michael, welcome to the community. You are face with a difficult decision faced by all of us who have had valve replacement surgery. For me, I chose a a tissue valve (bovine) as I was not ready to commit to taking blood thinners for the rest of my life. Another factor for me was the fact that if I require replacement again, I am told it can be done without another open heart procedure. Best of luck to you and as you will read, whatever decision you make is the right one for you.
