    mechanical or tissue valve

    Hi Natascha My surgeon recommended me to have a mechanical valve, he said it will last longer than a tissue valve. Doing the surgery again is so scary . Taking warfarin for the rest of the life what they said is not an issue, again it depends on your doctor what is best for you.
