At a healthy 65 years old they wanted to give me a mechanical valve, but I loved the active life I was living and didn't want that to change. Not to mention those all inclusive holidays in tropical countries 🤔
So far, my bovine bio prosthetic valve has done exactly that. My recent physical did not show any change or deterioration at all and life is good. We are so blessed to live in a time, that most heart valve operations are no longer dangerous like they used to be, instead a operation completed daily.
My suggestions would be to try to relax and accept the inevitable, and try to be as healthy and physically active, both before and after the operation. Embrace the operation that will save your life, and hopefully enrich it as well.
all the best my heart friends, you can do this 🙏
