Re: Time for a Valve Job
Gene, Hope things go well with the valve job. I think that's a pretty common operation now days. Happens a lot down here in the retirement village of Florida.

Re: Time for a Valve Job
Thank you for all of the prayers, good wishes and support. I'll try to keep you updated as well as I can. At least when you don't see me around much, you'll know why.
As Spence said, this is very common now. So much so that my surgeon does them pretty much full time. The plan calls for me to go in on Wednesday for a catheterization. This will check for any arterial blockages that may need a bypass during the surgery. I should be staying in the hospital for the valve replacement on Friday. After some more time in the shop, I'll head to either rehab or home. I haven't been feeling right for a few years now. Prior tests all came back normal so I attributed it to getting older. Doc says I'll probably be a new man afterwards. I'm looking forward to that.Comment
