the valve you have is probably great for younger candidates, but I was 90 and surgery was not a viable option. I had the TOVR. Very quick, quite painless, and a much better option than ""just wait and see". Recovery is very quick. I take a child's aspirin every day. No Coumadin. I do need some B.P. Medication. Hopefully, if I later need to replace this valve, there will be even greater progress in the replacement process, or at my age, I may just outlive the need.
