Hello Everyone ~
I am new to VR and new to heart problems. About a month ago I was sent by my family dr to have an echo, which revealed I need a mitral valve repair/replacement. I have selected and seen a cardiologist whom has scheduled a TEE and L&R Cardiac Cath (I have those done on Friday the 27th). My nerves have taken over and my wheels are spinning out of control, I don't know what to believe. I hear horror stories from folks that have had the CC about how painful it is, but my cardio dr says not to worry that I won't remember a thing. He is doing my TEE (with total sedation) and the CC will follow right after.
So I guess I am asking for HELP ~ PRAYERS ~ REASSURANCE ~ GUIDANCE.... just anything to help ease my mind.
Thanks in advance ~ Rob
