I go in for my cardiac cath. June 14th for aortic regurgitation and have an understanding of the general procedures but still have questions.
My orders for it designated left and right ventricle cath. Isn't that normally what everyone gets with a cath? I know my left ventricle is enlarged to the point of not being able to wait more than a few weeks for surgery, but the doctor never discussed the right ventricle. Or do I not understand this as well as I thought? I wasn't expecting surgery for another 5-10 years or longer so wasn't asking good questions that day!
I know a few of you have told me the procedure isn't that bad. But how active were people the next day or two after this exam? I realize everyone is different but am curious. I tried to look back through the old forum for info but kept getting distracted by other good info from everyone!
