OK--I am a novice here.
Have dealt with valve leakage for 10 yrs. and thought I could avoid surgery, but cardio is now suggesting it. So I naively had been thinking that OHS is OHS......and now I am thinking that bypass surgery, which seems to be quite common for us older folks (I got my Medicare card this year) is probably less complex than valve surgery.....and that side effects and recovery rate are probably quite different.
Any comments and insights are welcome!
