Hi Sue! You are in my prayers 🙏💖 I'm from Portland CT but now live in Alabama with my significant other. He's going through exactly what you are but his Dr will not operate. We are in the process of getting a second opinion. His Dr feels that his heart couldn't handle the repair. We're frustrated but hopeful. All the best to you!!

Patricia Miller Sue- Heart warriors are behind you. Hope everything goes really well.

Susan Dunne Get that second opinion and even a third. Some doctors are hesitant to operate because of the risk. Others have knowledge of techniques to lessen that risk. Shop around. Maybe he can find the right doctor.

Rose Madura Best wishes Sue!

Sherrie, don't give up on the second opinion.

Sherrie M Difusco Thank you Susan !!

susan harris Yes, search in upper right for Dr Michael Ibrahim. I don’t know him but I think people have mentioned he’s their surgeon in this community. Hope it helps.

Sending prayers. Hope you find the right surgeon for you🙏🏻

Sherrie M Difusco Thank you everyone for this advice.

Sherrie M Difusco Looked him up. I will definitely call him if Dr Adams can't or won't do the surgery. Thank you 🙏

susan harris Dr Michael abrams at penn also mentions in his profile that he specializes in high risk patients.

I knew about my MV regurgitation but I didn't know about my VT until the surgery, so good they found both! I ended up with some scary complications after surgery and a week later had an ICD implanted. They couldn't find any electrical issue they could ablate, so I have this "insurance policy". Haha
Keep us posted and best of wishes to you!

Hi Sue,

Saw that your were going with Dr. Adams. I did too for the same surgery, plus I have severe calcification so it was not an easy surgery. If I have any sage advice to share know that you will wake-up post surgery the most exhausted you have ever felt in your life, but it is short term. Every day you will get that much stronger. Also, get your protein levels up before surgery ( ups your hemoglobin) to assist with the lower hemoglobin that you will have post-surgery. I was too tired to eat much the first two days, so if someone can get your some protein shakes with a nice long straw it will help. Also, use earplugs in the step-down at night. A lot of bathroom and whatever else bells going-off:)

You will soon be in recovery and focusing on your daily walks. You got this. Godspeed.

Don't worry about the calcification. - a key benefit of going via sternum. In fact, Dr Adams said mine was even more severe than he thought;, and he picked some off my valve.

sue burns Thank you!
