Hello Colleen,
Katiekins here from the U K. Can’t understand why I have to sign in everytime I come onto the site to read very informative comments. Thank you for all the marvellous work you do. 🙏🏼

Hi there @katiekins,
I am not sure why sometimes I have to sign back in either, but at times I do.
I am on Connect every day and it comes to my email inbox as the Daily Digest...is this how you get yours too?
With the Daily Digest I simply click on it and away it goes.
I'm happy that you find this site supportive and informative. It has been for myself too.
I know you did not ask me, you asked @kelliw about her gradient, but mine was high like yours. I think at one time it was 76 or 77. It's down to 70 now after my septal myectomy.
The afternoon before my open heart surgery the team discussed my mitral valve and the possibility of replacement vs repair. Turns out it was just fine, but because of the anterior motion from the high gradient it looked like it needed help before they got in there.
I only mention this because you mention you need mitral valve repair shortly and this is food for thought. I understand valve surgeries can be done transcatheter now...is this the plan for yours?
