My girlfriend is a sonographer and told me that an MRI on a heart is actually called an MRA. She further looked it up and found that they are only useful in limited circumstances and that in most cases an echo is much better results.

Hello - my 90 year old mother is now suffering from a sticky aortic valve. She is thinking about having the TAVR procedure if a candidate. Has anyone had that procedure or know someone who has? Thanks for any information.

My aunt had it done about 5 years ago. The first in her county. She said it was a piece of cake compared to OHS when she had SAVR. She waa home in 2 days, I believe. That waa 5 years ago and she is doing well.

My friend had it at age 97 . she was in the hospital for 2 days, and lived to celebrate her 100th birthday. It relieved her shortness of breath and fatigue very quickly.

Hi David!! My Grandpa had a TAVR into his native valve in his 80s and he did great with it. I don't remember all the details, but I do remember is was quick, with a quick recovery and he felt much better after having it.

Thanks everyone for the information. Mother is meeting virtually today with a PA from St. Joseph's cardiac unit in Nashville. First steps. Thanks Adam for the link. I'll send it to her so she can read it. She is a "techno grandma" and will enjoy the research opportunity.

Remembering the blessings of the Lord as we celebrated David's three month surgical anniversary this week. May we never forget what the Lord has done and may we never stop sharing our testimony.

Amen David! I had an Incredible calm before my surgery and miraculous recovery that I credit to Him alone. Calm is not my nature and I had wished I had better prepared physically for recovery, but He blessed me with both. This site is a Godsend and I pray for... Read more.
