Hello wonderful and brave people! I've am new here and am very grateful to be among you all.. My first question is for any insight, advice or experience from anyone about the tri-cuspid valve? It seems this valve is left out of the expertise catalogues of Drs and Hospitals on the highly recommended lists.......I also have mild Mitral Regurgitation, but the Tri-cuspid valve is at a more advanced stage apparently and is probably causing the symptoms. Thank you!

Kimberly Eisenhut Hello Elizabeth, I also have Tricuspid, moderate to severe. I am so happy to see someone else here with same. It is almost impossible to find others like us. I am being watched and have an echo every six months. My next one is July 17th downtown Chicago at Northwestern, where I have been going for past 5 years following my tricuspid as well as an anuerytic ascending aortic artery which is at 4.1 at this time. What are your symptoms and where are you going for care? Northwestern In Chicago is one of the hospitals doing the new surgery for tricuspid, and I hope my situation stays the same for a few more years until they have perfected the surgery and had more experience with it. Here is my convo woth my Cardiac specialist office asking about it;
Hello, I am wondering if Northwestern is one of the hospitals doing the Evoque Tricuspid replacement valve by Edwards?
