@andy1967 I had severe leaking mitral and aortic valves so am not familiar with valve blockage. My open-heart repair of said valves did not work and so I was referred to Mayo. The Mayo Connect Community is a good resource for support and much less qualified for medical advice. As Amanda suggested, consulting with a qualified physician is your best route and from my experience there is no place better than Mayo. Then again, I am biased. They saved my life with a transplant.
Best always,
s!

@scottij thank you , my name is Kathy Yarbrough. My brother just found out this week he has 3 blockages. They put a stint in 1 but the doctor said Andy needs surgery on the other 2 blockages. I know he doesn't want surgery he is scared of that. I have heard so many good things about the mayo clinic and I don't know you but I am so happy for you , I take so many things for granted until something like this happens. I have been praising God for all the blessings he gives me everyday. I am just so happy for you!!
