Diana Sirico Thanks for all the well wishes. I went with another bioprosthetic valve. I developed A Fib after the second surgery and I have been on coumadin and amiodarone, but having a hard time reaching a therapeutic INR range. I am glad that my doctor thinks this is temporary because it has been a challenge to reach and maintain a suitable INR range. Best wishes to all for a healthy 2019!
