Hang in there Peggy !!! I have had 2 aortic valve replacements in 14 years- the first time was open heart surgery and the most recent- last October was TAVR. Like you, I have struggled with AFIB and heart failure. You have found an incredible community of supportive doctors, nurses, and friends on this website that will help you find your way back to doing what you love to do. When your recovery is well underway, go get yourself a pizza from Palermo’s on 95th Street on the south side for me and celebrate..

All the the best Peggy with your MV surgery. You’re at a center of excellence with a very skilled surgeon so trust the process. I’m 10 weeks post MV repair at the Cleveland Clinic and doing great.

Dear Peggy, prayers up for you and the surgery. I have had a mild Mitral valve for several years. It just showed up as moderate. I m 75. Last year i went in to CONGESTIVE HEART FAILURE AND PULMONARY HYPERTENTION AFTER FLUID OVERLOAD. I M not sure how a person feels with a lmild to moderate eaky heart valve. Do you mind filling me in? Very disalusioned in Texas.

Peggy,
You are brave, and strong. I can tell. You will get through this, and be much, much better on the other side. I had OHS on July 8, replacing aortic valve and reconstruction of aorta. (Existing aneurysm). I’m 69. Been watching aneurysm and monitoring bicuspid aortic valve for 11 years. Started feeling lousy last summer. Did surgery, and 8 months later, I feel better than I’ve ever felt. I mean since I’ve been in my semi senior years. Ha

Hey Peggy, As your mitral valve procedure is scheduled for this Friday, I wanted you to know that you are in great hands with Dr. Hodges. I was lucky to connect with Dr. Hodges on Valentine's Day at Northwestern in Chicago. We filmed a few videos together about minimally-invasive surgery. A great guy and excellent surgeon.
