Per the Cardiac Surgeon I saw today for a second opinion, I do not need to have heart surgery at this time.

My regurgitation is only moderate and I have no symptoms so at this time all we need to do is monitor my heart.

In 4 mos they want to do another heart sono to check status.

If the regurgitation stays moderate and I get no symptoms no surgery will be needed. 

He said they only operate when there are symptoms and severe regurgitation.

YAY!!!

Thank you all for your support and prayers.


Sincerely,

Teena Adler

  I can imagine how relieved you must feel.  Thank God it was a false alarm. 

It would be wonderful if this would resolve itself.  Hopefully you've been given the guidance needed to keep your heart healthy.
