Help please, need some advice!

My surgeon and cardiologist have also told me that I need antibiotic cover for all invasive procedures including dentistry. They are opposed to the new guidelines (I'm in the UK) and feel that they were imposed without proper consultation.

Yes, this is exactly what they said to me and my surgeon said he has seen far too many infected valves after dental work to follow the guidelines.
