Had first day of pre-surgery testing yesterday at Cleveland Clinic and Heart Cath showed no significant issues with coronary arteries. That was a big relief. Only problem I had was radial artery wouldn't cooperate so they had to go through the femoral artery to do test. More tests today and meet with Dr. Tong to discuss the surgery. I'm assuming it will be a mini-sternotomy for the aortic valve replacement. Still clinging on to some hope for a repair, but won't know until my meeting later this morning. Had to stay in the hospital last night and can't say enough about the staff at CC. They were all great. Hoping for a smooth surgery and quick recovery.
