Hi,
My name is Pat, I am a 59 year old female, always active untill the past eight months when valve problems were first diagnosed, from the start I was treated with medication, now I will have to undergo valve replacement or repair surgery, surgeon says he won't know until he goes in. I have severe mitral regurgitation and moderate to severe tricuspid, plus atral fib. I am scheduled to have the robotic surgery . I was wondering if anyone else has had this type of surgery and maybe could tell me what their experience was like.
