Ahhhh you'll be fine. They work miracles in hospitals these days. You are having what is now a very common procedure. Especially considering how many Americans have heart related issues these days. [burnout]

there is nothing as a simple procedure about that i hope you done your research and found a surgeon that has done this many times.

Hope all goes well brotha, my son is 10 and has a bicuspid aortic valve. I hope be doesn't need to have any surgeries in the future, but they said most cases do require some type of procedure in the future.

Common. Common is what it is. Most doctors who offer this have done it too many times to count. They are very confident and competent.

Ur box is full. One of the best things I've ever done. After my surgery and prior to getting crushed my heart was perfect and I ran 5 miles a day. Now, my hearts still perfect.
