    Hi Lisa, Igot a synthetic mitral valve. They were going to do ablations in my right atreim, but they said it was to sqiushed. (exact words) They had also considered replacing my aortic valve, but determined it to risky given the condition of my right atriem.They said that my new valve is good for 30 years. I can live with that. thanks

    Dear Dennis,

    I'm glad you are feeling better. By "more" --do you mean that they were going to do a myectomy but didn't? Sorry, I'm confused. But very glad you are recovering well!

    Take care and keep us posted,

    Sarah
