About Me (In My Own Words)
I had my aortic valve replaced the first time when I was 19 years old in 1990. My initial valve was a St Jude Mechanical. I've been on warfarin since (28 years now). In Oct of 2018 I had an aortic aneurysm repaired and my aortic valve replaced again. This time I chose an ON-X mechanical valve with an aortic prosthesis.
