    Thanks @LondonAndy & @Superman, I suspect its a tooth I had repaired a few month a go, when I sleep I do grind my teeth and I think it's due to that, it hurts when it's hot or cold and when I bite on that aide, either way I will tell the cardiologist on Wednesday what to do as it is very...

    Hello guys again, I still haven't been discharged due to my heart going crazy yesterday it jumped to the 130s while I was in the bathroom. My rest heart rate for example right now in the morning is at 103. Also I'm very scared because I started having sharp tooth pain when eating to brushing my...

    Thanks, feeling a lot better just got to the step down unit, everything looks very good, haven't walked yet but recovery looks good. I feel like my back hit with a bat, ticking is not so loud and it's actually relaxing for me.

    That sounds a lot like the Dr. Ozaki procedure.

    Thanks for your message, I hope I can have some after two weeks like unicusp. I am also getting my something on my ascending aorta now because it's on the border line to dilation (aneurysm) didn't really understand when the surgeon said it as he said he will put something to fix it no problem...

    I get what you're saying completely, if I had not done my own research I would've easily get convinced that Ross procedure or ozaki were the two best options. I don't mind reading about things, I just don't like at looking at operations and a lot blood lol. How long after the operations were...

    Thanks for the information. Fun fact doctors said im a special case, my bicuspid aortic valve became unicuspid due to the amount to calcification on one of the leaflet.

    Thanks Andy, I just spoke with mt surgeon which was pushing more for ross procedure or ozaki procedure. I told him im already set on the mechsnival and going to the on-x, he also said i am medium risk for cardiac surgery which i dont know exactly how much more riskier it is for me.
