Near 30 years old with Bav and a dialated aorta (4.0). My regurgitation is moderate and stable for years. My cardio said surgery could still be 20+ away but it could also be 5-10. Obviously hoping for much farther away but already thinking about mechanical vs tissue.
could any of you mechanical valvers answer a few things for me??
- what are some of the restrictions?
- how strict is the medicine? If you forget one dose what happens?
- how time consuming is the inr testing?
- how bad is the clicking?
- a general breakdown of what life on blood thinners would be helpful.
