Dr. Chikwe is a world-renowned heart valve surgeon that has performed thousands of heart valve operations that include minimally-invasive techniques.
This book has helped over 47,000 patients and caregivers from diagnosis to recovery.
Rose, the cardiologist said there is no way to determine the cause (calcified? pannus? etc?). It's a Carpentier-Edwards Perimount bovine valve.
Debbie, you're too kind. I'm in Dallas/FW and will need to have the re-op locally. Probably in Plano.
Dan, so sorry you're having stomach issues--that is no fun, for sure!
My cardiologist and I agree that I need to find a stellar, maybe even world-class, gastroenterologist, since no one in 10 years has been able to help resolve my issues. I don't want my stomach to dictate which valve I can have again.
