Thanks dude! All the best for u 2!

Hello Lyn! Thanks for your reply and for sharing your experience as a mother with me. I can understand but never imagine the love of a mother: is unique. Thank God mothers exist! They are the best! :) As for your child, its quite tough to read all the things hes been through since being born...

My friends! I have read all your posts, and they are really helpful. Since I had the Ross Operation, I dont hear my heartbeat so strong;still I can hear it more than before! I think I can get used to it. Nevertheless, I am experiencing since yesterday some pain in the left-side of my neck...

Mary, thanks for your wishes! I wish you also all the best! Kind regards!

Dear Escargome (Don´t know your name :)) I really thank you for your kind words! I am pretty sure you should be a good mom! I wish you also all the luck! Best regards!

Hey my friends! it´s been quite some time since my last post. Before my operation I kind of disappeared from the scene, but now I am back. I finally decided myself to undergo the Ross Operation. I value the thing that I dont have to take anticoagulants, and that I dont have to watch out...

Some inputs from my experience with my AVR Some inputs from my experience with my AVR I agree with most of the things (eyperiences) that T in YVR told, and add some of my own: - I was surprised also by the draining tubes. They look so weird inserted in your stomach. And painful, when they...

All the best for a speedy healing period! You are right! It`s all about the future, and it is uncertain... Did you have the surgery with Dr. Stelzer in the US, or in Ireland with another surgeon? I totally agree with your opinion. I think I am gonna do also the Ross procedure! Hope...

Thanks for your reply! How do you feel 8 weeks after the OP? As if you had a new heart? By the way, I have found a surgeon here in Vienna, who seems to be the most experienced one, who has done this Ross procedure since 1994, 200 Ross OP more or less.I think he is the surgeon to go to. Why...

Thanks for the reply Pete! Here in Vienna I have also found a Doctor, who seems is the most prepared and experienced regarding the Ross procedure, Dr. Günther Laufer. I keep thinking of the fact of being reoperated after a while...instead of taking anticoagulants...hope Ross is the best...

Is it too difficult to ask not being reoperated and not having to take anticoagulants...I wonder :S

Hello guys! Can someone try to convince me as to why with age 27 years old, loving to play tennis and basketball, and eating healthy, the Ross procedure will be more convenient for me than choosing a mechanical (or a tissue) valve? Thanks! I appreciate it!

Heys! Hi Anthony! I have to undergo AVR surgery too in a couple of weeks! I have not yet my decision, but because I am 27 years old, I am between a mechanical valve and the Ross procedure. The first, as you may well know, last a lifetime but for the rest of your life you have to take...

Hi Dick! thanks! Don`t you have worries when you: - go to the dentist? - injure yourself (that means, when you have an inflammation)? - blood has to be taken from you (for whatever analysis)? - shave? - are sick? Do you adjust your Warfarin dosis in these occasions? Furthermore, I love...

Although that`s funny what you say (regarding what would a urologist or a proctologist say to you!), it`s true! I could not agree more with one my friend! Up until now I have already visited 7 doctors, 4 cardiologists (who suggest me to go mechanical) and 3 surgeons (2 from them suggested me...

Heys! Hi! Thanks for the reply! When you say that there`s a possibility to undergo a 3rd surgery, what do you mean? The second one was to due a aortic root dilation, right? What did the surgeon do at that time? Just replace the root? And when you mean you`d go mechanical, you mean to replace...
