About Me (In My Own Words)
Bicuspid valve with severe aortic stenosis. Hopefully successful surgery and recovery at home.
Am having TAVR (trans catheter aortic valve replacement) surgery, which is less invasive than open heart and involves placing a catheter through the groin and up to my heart. Usually patients stay overnight in the hospital and are back home the next day with a week to 10 days recovery time.
