I had open heart surgery on Sept 17th. I have watched many of "Adam's" videos. Thank you for this site and the insight into many of the procedures! Rob
Hi Robert, Great to hear you have enjoyed watching Adam's videos in our UA-cam channel for heart valve disease patients and care partners! Congrats on having your procedure this past September 17!
Hi Bowtie, A tight, narrow or blocked aortic valve is not a good thing. The medical term for this is aortic stenosis which can cause shortness of breath, fatigue, chest pain, heart failure and, ultimately, premature death. You can learn more about aortic stenosis at this video link - ua-cam.com/video/f43WS6Uo2Co/v-deo.html. Hope that helps!
Hi, You raise a really great question. Unfortunately, as a patient advisory group, we are not trained or capable of providing specific medical advice. That said, we would strongly encourage you to discuss this question with your medical team. If you are not getting information that you are comfortable with then perhaps you should get a second opinion to validate and support next steps in the treatment process.
