About Me

January I went in for a complete physical, preparatory to having ankle surgery. My PCP informed me my heart murmur was "no longer a sweet little lullaby", that it needed to be checked out. I was referred to a Cardiologist who did tests and confirmed both my aortic and mitral valves have moderate to severe stenosis. This caused by radiation treatments I received for Hodgkins Lymphoma WAY back in 1980/1981. So, the ankle surgery has been put on hold obviously. The two valves set to be replaced 4.29.2016.
