UP DATE I saw the cardiologist today . I will post all the data when he gives it to me.According to his test today ,my valve is 1 not smaller like i was told in Panama and he recomends no surgery now .Possible in 1 or two years. He says keep walking until I have symptoms, But feels that the risk having surgery is much greater than me dying walking. He wants me to come back in 6 months. I will keep my appointment with Dr. gagoric the surgeon tomorrow. Your thoughts are welcome, and I will post after seeing the suggeon. Ken
