Latest Stress test was an ECHO one done in October at Mayo Clinic, Jacksonville. I met with the PA Friday 12/3 to go over results and my mitral valve is showing stress during exercise. I am to return for another test in 3 months. The time may have arrived to replace my repaired mitral valve.

TEE was Thursday, Dec 3 at Mayo Clinic, Jacksonville. Results: My repaired mitral valve will be replaced with a mechanical one. In 2 months another ECHO and stress test; Then surgery to follow after Covid slows down or there is a vaccine. I am thankful for all that have gone before me here and will learn from your experiences.

Hello, I was here 15 years ago, since remarried, moved to a new state and now my congenital defective mitral valve, repaired by davinci robotic procedure is leaking once again. It is leaking moderately to severely. The cardiologist has told me this time I am unable to have a repair, but must have the valve replaced with a mechanical valve. I know you will help get me through this!!
