Erin's Guestbook

Erin, I have moderate to severe tricuspid regurgitation as well as slight leaking in other valves and an aneurytic aortic artery (4.1). I am currently in wait and see mode, but I am glad to have found someone else with tricuspid regurgitation, as it is so very uncommon and hard to find anyone else to speak with about it. Hope to stay in touch and support each other through our journey with this. I wish I knew more about the specific trial you are speaking about, but I will look into it. I know Dr. McArthy at Northwestern in Chicago has a special interest in tricuspid treatment, so you may want to contact them and just get a second opinion. When I need surgery it will most likely be with him or Dr. Malaisrie at Northwesterns Bluhm Cardiovascular institute. I live in Illinois though, so it is more convenient for me. Praying for you, and please keep in touch, Kim

Erin, just wanted you to know that you’re constantly running through my mind. I pray that you have found someone that can help you. I am a Hodgkin’s survivor, and I know some of the struggles that you are going through. Would love to hear of how things are progressing for you. ~❤️
