Backup plan:
If you live near and can travel to Raleigh, NC, contact this office to send your test results, especially the latest echo, to the great cardiac surgeon, Dr. Byron Boulton; set up a consultation visit, perhaps by phone. He is Director of the WakeMed Structural Heart Program at WakeMed in Raleigh, NC. Phone (919) 231-6333. I had a serious regurgitation/mitral valve problem and AFIB (all caused by a gum/dental infection after questionable dental work). He repaired my mitral valve, did an LAAC, and did an ablation to cure my AFIB. That was over three and ½ years ago. I am as fine as wine, off all meds too, except for 4 amoxicillin before dental visits. I am a soon-to-be 82-year-old male, just a kid.
Regards,
Sagan
