What was proposed to is the "David type" valve sparring procedure. I had one done in 2002 and things still seem to be working fine.

Thank you!

Thank you everyone!

Well as a former naval officer let me suggest something to you. What you are considering is not an adventure, it is not excitement, it is not something to be done to enjoy the "rush". My friend, what you are proposing is no different than going to war, however small of a scale it might be. If...

The way it works would be that the buyer would need to assume the loan as part of the closing. However the lender would need to approve this of course, and depending on the loan terms or the buyer's credit score the lender may require that the loan be paid off at closing. Banks are playing...

I am so sad. She will be in our prayers.

Twelve day is nothing. If at 12 weeks you are not getting better you have an issue. Now, if you push yourself too much you will pay for it. Take you time, be gentle with yourself.

I had an ascending aortic aneurysm repaired in 2002. I looked for a surgeon to do the Ross, found one at Rush here in Chicago with well over 100 done. He looked at my test results and recommended that I have the damaged portion of the aorta replaced and that they save my aortic valve in what...

About 6 hrs here as well from getting carted off to waking up. But most of that time you are being prepped, and then coming down from the surgery. You are certainly not opened up that long. Pump time of an hour or so seems common unless something goes wrong.

Happy B Day Folks!

It takes about 5-6 months for the chest to fully heal, at least that is what I was told. I would think that the AR-15 is something you could shoot sooner, maybe 3 months to be safe. Anything heavier I would wait 6 mos.

Happy Birthday folks!

So sorry, will be remembered in our prayers.

Aww, thank you all very much for remembering!!!!!!!!!

I would suggest Dr Kavinsky at Rush, but if you want the burbs, try anyone working out of Rush Copley in Aurora.

Ah, found it: http://www.thirdreichruins.com/

Thanks Ross, that was very interesting. There is a site on the net that does the same thing in germany, something like "Third Reich Then And Now". Its amazing from that site and these pics how much from those days remains in place. Here we just tear stuff down! Long ago I saw a book that...

The risk with heavy weights is that you will push your BP into dangerous levels and therefore blow out the valve, etc. I have a valve repair and I did go back to weights around 2 months post op., but I did not lift the really heavy stuff. My cardio is ok with what I am doing, especially since...

My prayers go out to each of you that has suffered loss, too often without reason. It would be inappropriate and perhaps dangerous for us to mention specific doctors or hospitals where we believe care was sub-standard. But if we have had quality care, from good doctors and staff, each of us...

Mine was at 4.7 and I was told to get it done.
