I mentioned in another entry that I had questioned, and my doctor agreed, that I was probably not a candidate for a myectomy or ablation due to the small size of my septum, even though I have a fairly large inducible gradient. He said that maybe I would need a mitral valve replacement. But I cannot figure out how that would help, since presumably the septum would then hit the new valve. I am wondering whether anyone else has been told this and what this would involve. This is not an urgent question because we agreed that this would be a last resort measure.
Any insights?
