    Two month after TAVR....

    No need to, it had been my fault for not being more accurate in my description. Dual boot system can be a royal pain, especially after updating one OS to the later, later version. You could run Windows intallation and select repair boot record, that could fix it. You may need to edit GRUB's...

    Two month after TAVR....

    My bad, it's not defibrillation, it was fibrillation according to two cardiologist. I've got confused with the ICD and misspelled it. The event showed up in the heart monitoring log on the fourth day after the TAVR: The notification did not result in anyone contacting me, seen the cardiologist...

    Two month after TAVR....

    I did have the TAVR done already and ICD is the next recommended device. While I am certain that my cardiologists have the best intention, I am at the point to evaluate the pros/cons of this device. That and what else could be next after the ICD? Two month ego, I've been "organic" and now...

    Two month after TAVR....

    Thx @pellicle ... That's lot's of reading and a slew of abbreviation in those documents. Being new to to this does not help either, even if I had high blood pressure for awhile by now. In general, the percentages aren't that high and you're correct, as of now the conditions do not really apply...

    Two month after TAVR....

    Hello... I had my Edward aortic valve balloon procedure close to two month ego. The procedure went well, albeit for 3 - 4 weeks my blood pressure and pulse had been fluctuating a lot. The headaches took a little later to subside, I am not even certain if it is related to the new medication of...

    Maybe that's all you needed, but I prefer researching the subjects and listen to people in the field, including three different doctors. Before you state that family has no experience in this field, that isn't so. My wife is a former RN and my daughter is a current paramedic soon to be RN, who...

    I believe that the answer to your question had been in my OP, that you had quoted. To extend on that... When it comes to a medical condition, there isn't much of a choice depending on the subject at hand.

    Fourth day after surgery...

    Thx... To be honest, after the initial consultation, I didn't trust him much, but went through the additional testing that verified the viability of the balloon; mainly due to my cardiologist's referral to him. The second consultation with the interventional cardiologist went much better and...

    Fourth day after surgery...

    Four days ago, I had my TAVR done and they held me back for overnight observation. That probably was the hardest part since I could not sleep much, due to the intermittent pneumatic pressure device on both legs. Every time when I was about to fall asleep the pump would kick in alternatively. The...

    I am glad that you were able to see your kids grow up, he needed that as much as you did. I am still getting accustomed to the acronyms that this forum throws around... I've joined the septuagenarian club this year, or as my kids said, "Over the hill, down the valley, across the river. It's a...

    Thx... You did have a good run, I hope that your OHS will be lasting at least as long as your balloon did. My cardiologist told me, that he can put in a smaller AV in the future, if necessary; did he blow some sunshine in my direction?

    Hello everyone.... I am new at this forum, just had to register.... I had my TAVR proceedure done earlier this week and it is a mixed feeling. That's probably a OK, since it's only couple days old, but looks promising so far. BP is fine, but Pulse is a bit on the high side for me in the low...
