Like a fellow member, I too had a virtually bump free recovery (3 years ago)
Now with my latest echo results in my hand and comparing it with the others I have, I've notice some numbers have gone down while a couple have gone up - excluding my EF which was 64% is now 66%.
So I was wondering, what is the possibility of having another heart surgery? Could the replacement of one valve cause other parts of the heart to weaken or harden?
I don't mean to scare anyone, this is just a curiosity question and to satisfy my curious mind.
Thanx
