@karen1945 Hi! I’m new to the worry about aortic valve replacement. I have known that I have had mild aortic stenosis, but I have not worried about it until now. This year I was told I have moderate aortic stenosis- explains unusual fatigue and shortness of breath. The cardiologist pointed out that it will only get worse and explained that I can have TAVR when it’s time.
I know it’s childish but I’m angry to have another worry! I’d like to start up tennis again now after a pandemic year off. Will have to start slowly.
I also like Mayo in Jacksonville.

I hear you! We were planning to go to Maine this summer. Now those plans are on hold while we work through this new wrinkle in our life. It’s annoying to wake up in the morning, full of ambition, only to poop out by lunchtime! But oh well, at least I wake up! Look on the bright side!
