Hi! I had my first myectomy at the age of 7 and mitral valve replacement, which is a mechanical heart valve. The whole thing is a complete blur and nonexistant in my memory.
What I'm wondering is does the obstruction grow back?
What is done prior to a myectomy in the hospital?
What is done after a myectomy while in the hospital then at when you go home?
I'm also presently with a heart murmer, and read that is present in the severest of cases, is this true? If I am asymptomatic, does that mean that I don't need surgery? Do mechanical heart valves have to be replaced?
