It’s like a group of old men getting together every night to congratulate each other on having the exact same philosophy and opinions and telling the same old boring jokes while passerby’s giggle and thank God they aren’t at those get togethers. Lol
To any “newbie” coming here expecting objective discourse, you may want to move on. The philosophy of those on this board is that the only people who have any knowledge worth hearing are those who are not “newbies” to this forum. Also do not dare say anything negative about mechanical valves...
I see so this is a good ole boys club and no one is to take issue or debate popular people. Nice Pell. Btw I think you have way too much free time on your hands.
Chuck, That seems to be a nice book you wrote but way too long to read for most people. If anyone is lashing out it is obvious to any half way intelligent reader that you are the one doing the name calling and lashing out. Merry Christmas.
Anti-Vaxers? Lol Is that like anti-soinachers? People who don’t like spinach. I’m a Trump supporter does that make me a trumper? What are Biden supporters? Biders?
When you speak of “old” men, speak for yourself. “Old” is not a well defined term, and quite frankly I am no old man. I’ll put my athletic skills up against most 40 year olds.
Most valve surgery patients aren’t on this board and I can now see why. It’s all one sided. In addition to the very slanted and biased views, the name calling alone would make most people leave. To that end, Ciao!
Lastly you are not the final arbiter for the majority of mechanical valve recipients. Did you take a pole of every one of them to come up with the conclusion that the majority of them don’t have issues? Come on man!
You have zero experience with a tissue valves yet you come here and make claims about how long they last simply because you can use google like all of us here. Cardiologist after cardiologist will try to steer people away from mechanical valves for good reason even for those who are younger yet...
I agree it’s sad when people make uninformed choices and wind up stuck with a valve that keeps them up all night or requires ingesting rat poison the rest of their life. Btw OHS is not required again for the new tissue valves as they have built in TAVR compatibility. There are many many...
This is obviously a mechanical valve site with members who refuse to acknowledge the scores of complaints from mechanical valve recipients. In addition the outright biased against tissue valves is apparent and for obvious reasons.. You already have mechanical valves ticking away in your chests...
Well it breaks my heart when I hear or read about someone who decided on a mechanical valve just to find out the day after surgery how difficult and complicated taking blood thinners can be (for them) or the ticking noise was louder than they thought and/or know one told them about it. Yes...
