hi,
I,m trying to figure out how serious my
problem is. I have been told ,after
echocard, tha t I have aortic sclerosis
with moderate restriction in the mobility
of my aortic valve leaflets,mild
stenosis,e.f. about 30,2+ regurge and
mitral annular calcification.
Am I right in speculating that ,only 3
years after the valve was put in,
that this should not be happening or be so
far advanced? This doesn,t seem right.
I have had 2 ohs, 8 angioplasts and
stents,3M.I.s, installed icd bi vent one
year ago which has now extruded and been
repositioned. I am diagnosed with chf,
compensated and ischem cardiomyap.
I will see my cardio next week. Need
someone else's opinion.
thanks,
jrod

heart valve replacement Posted: 02-11-08 12:35pm
I would like to know if you valve is
leaking after such a short period of time.
I had a prosthetic aortic valve replaced
along with a double bypass and that is
scary to think it would give me problems
in such a short period of time. I would
check with a good cardiologist and
question them as to why it is leaking.
