Diane Esposito I’m so glad you’re doing well. I was thinking of you also because I think I remember you commenting that your sternotomy pain was worse at two weeks; mine is too, though the actual incision is healing nicely. I’m having some irregular rhythms too which I guess can happen after surgery but it makes me nervous. I’ve got an echocardiogram coming up on Monday so I’ll mention it again.

Claire Kreger-Boaz I know we are going to be ok, but I am scared. I mean, not having the surgery is obviously not an option, but having it freaks me out so bad. Anyway, I wish you both the best, and I hope to share recovery stories soon!

Kevin Bradley Claire, so am I. I’ve been pretty strong up to this point, but the last few days have kicked my butt! As I left my office today to start my medical leave and telling my coworkers I will see them soon it kinda hit me in the gut. As I drove home my mind tortured me thinking if I would return. I constantly jump on this site to read about everyone and that help me to get back to a happy positive place. You are right, we will be ok and I will do my best to post on here as soon as I can as well as to check on you and everybody else. Keep your head up and I will keep you in my thoughts and prayers.

Mark Jaycox Claire, keep reading the posts. It never crossed my mind I would have any issues. You need to stay positive during this time. I don't know what I would have done if it weren't for this site. The anxiety leading up to the operation is always the hardest but when you keep reading all the successful stories it will help you so much.

Hi Claire, -That was a beautiful heartfelt post. And great photos! Thank you for sharing. Just know that you are not alone, although it seems that way. Sometimes it does get overwhelming and it seems so surreal. Just take it one step at a time. One foot in front of the other. And you will get to the day of the surgery and before you know it, the risk will be behind you. You will be in my thoughts and prayers.

Hi Claire, wishing you Gods best on your own journey through this new and challenging door we must walk through.... I got a kick out of your response to mine “the Wait” we sound alike in the fact we probably read a bit to much and dissect, research every angle we can concerning this whole procedure🧐🤯🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔😂 keep me posted on your journey. Good luck meeting with your surgeon... We can and will! ☝️❤️👍

Mike Roskowinski Hey Claire and Lisa - Just like you two I am also new to this entire thing. Just found out about 1 month ago that I even had anything. I suggest not using Dr. Google to research everything you can. That is the same way I am and it drove me bat crap crazy. Stick to this website and the information here. Listen to the people here and read the journals as they can relate to what we are going through. Ever since I kicked the google I am so much more happier. Listen to your surgeons and cardiologists since every person is different and every body is different. They see the images and test results and can read them way better than we can. TRUST in them and TRUST in God that he will heal us. I found this commercial funny cause totally what I do.

North Memorial Health pokes fun at online self diagnosis in new spot

https://www.thedrum.com/news/2018/02/20/north-memorial-health-pokes-fun-online-self-diagnosis-new-spot

The internet has become the first source of healthcare information for many people, but self-diagnosis can lead to plenty of misinformation, as a spot for North Memorial Health humorously shows.

At the of age 51, had an aortic root and aortic valve replaced 18 years ago at Cedars Sinai in Los Angeles. Born with a bicuspid valve. 14 relatives passed away before their 65 birthday -sudden death. Thank God I had no children. I maintain an 18 year spreadsheet showing my blood tests, drugs and part numbers. I keep this in my glove box of my car. Good Luck and keep my in touch.
