Hi and (I think) welcome back.
I often say that once you have valve problems you may end up with more problems, so its best to consider things from that perspective. There is often no cure, only ongoing treatments as needed.
Best off to plan to minimize them but plan to accept there may be more.
Mitral may be amenable to a clip .. or some other treatment, or just stay leaking ;-)
Keep us posted
Best Wishes
