Hey John this is the other John. I think we might be twins the same name and the same condition. If you have a bad hip you might be a triplet with Ross and me. God Bless. Let us know how you are doing. I will be praying for you.
Surgery date is 4/23 @ lennox hill in ny.Dr Plestis is the surgeon. Went for a routine checkup last month and found the aneurysm and bicuspid valve on the echo.
Hi John. Welcome! Best wishes on your surgery. I think most of us would agree that the waiting is the hardest part. Can't wait to hear from you on the other side!
Thanks for all the support.What a wonderful site this is. It helps so much reading the experiences of others. I have one more day of pre tests this Thursday and will wait for my big day the following Thursday.
After the heart cath yesterday the Doctor said all was clear and that the aortic valve didn't look that bad.
