absol spot on northernlights, top post, we cant choose a valve choice for somebody else we have to choose our own path, ive always felt statistics to a point are brill but then it gets into muddy waters, we can pull out statistics to prove or back our opinion on any subject, it can in many ways...

lisa in my mind that means there is no golden rule for one or the other, my cardio and surgeon couldn't agree on my valve so what hell chance did I have lol, your right its down to the individual choice which path you go down in most cases, neither is perfect but hey it saves our lives,

I went tissue as didn't want to be on warfarin and the problems that may occur, I was 51 and my porky is still honking away, whichever you have choosen will save your life so theres no wrong choice, good luck

hiya dean and zech, some good advice already given, dean you from the uk? what part?

good news anne,

theres no wrong choice, I got a tissue over 9 years ago and its still honking away, didn't want to be on warfarin, for everybody who says tissue somebody will say mech, its your choice, don't measure using somebody elses ruler , pick for you,

hopefully things will get better, it can be slow stuff

hiya and welcome, firstly there is no bad choice, which ever you choose is gonna save your life, theres stats to back whichever way you go and in general its a hard choice, some choose mech others tissue, its whats best for you,As I say don't measure your needs using somebody elses ruler lol...

welcome aboard. The waiting is the worst bit imo, the actual op isn't that bad, I went for tissue also as didn't want to be on warfarin and the problems that may occur, saying that many do ok on it, good luck and am sure you will do just fine

IMO I would be putting a lot of work into finding the top surgeon around your area who is top dog in this field, this looks like a job for the best around and that's the person I would be looking to find,

hi, if you want more info and insite, adam pick has a valve support group with over 5,000 members am sure I have seen a few on with marfans syndrome, imo the more forums you look at the more rounded your opinion can be, its good you can get advise and help,

hevishot, whats the point of you on this forum? you seem to be shooting at the hip to everyone
