I think you are handling this perfectly. See the experts, have the tests and see what your options are. Your cardio at Mayo will fill you in on all your options.

BTW, 74 is the new 54. Don't count yourself out because of age. Valve replacements have been done on people far older than you.

I wish you good luck with your Mayo experience and a long and healthy life.

Dearest Donna,
Can’t tell you how much your reply has touched my heart. I don’t have any family ties and my friends are far too young to discuss my cardio issues with. It’s great to be able to connect with someone that understands all the cardio lingo.

I’ve seen five cardiologists and learned something from each one. Since August of 2024, I’ve spend countless hours learning about my cardio hiccups, in order to be able to ask educated questions and not feel like a walking time bomb. God has truly blessed me with tenacity.

Love what you said about the new 5️⃣4️⃣!

Blessings & Blue Skies,
Brene’
