About Me (In My Own Words)
I found I had a Heart Murmur in my early 20's. I am 60 now and after my Echo and heart monitor i had the last few months.
Had another Echo 3 months later and the Stenosis has progressed. So its time for my Aortic Valve Replacement. During the Angiogram they found an 80% blockage in another vein. I will be having a bypass as well now (taking a vein from my lower leg)
My Surgery is scheduled for 11/30.
PreOp appointment the day before Thanksgiving, COVID-19 test on Saturday, then 5am Monday Morning. Hospital is 1 hour and 45 minutes away. My Wife will Not be allowed to see me until I'm released.
