Hi, all--
Just got back from the cardio's office and here's the news:
1) Valve's great. Some trace leakage and my left atrium is still a little enlarged now 2 years post-op, but so far, so great!
2) Re-stenosis of my right femoral artery at the groin area. Cardio wants me to have another MRA and then possibly schedule another procedure in which a surgeon will go in and cut out the scar tissue. Geez. I'm wondering why this wasn't done in the first place instead of the balloon angioplasty.
Oh, well. Wish me luck!
I'll keep you updated...
