Hello. Reposting after losing access, I apologize if it does double post. I’m new to the site, yet not the fight or subsequent delight after a heart repair. I had congenital repairs 36 years ago and have since enjoyed great quality of life and many adventures. Then Covid hit and damaged my heart. Despite recovering and a long course of cardiac rehab now 5 years past those dark days my 4 leaky valves need a tuneup. I’m weighing my options as I approach sternotomy #2. Would like to connect with others who have had complex repairs including Ross+1 or Ross +2 (is it even possible?) in a single surgery. Also those who chose to get multiple repairs during separate surgeries. Thanks!
John Cook Does “four leaky valves” mean you also have pulmonary valve regurgitation?
Kelley L Yes, it is the best of the bunch though, only mild.
