Mvr Treatment
UpdatedMy mom 76yrs. has been diagnosed of having heart problem (esp. mitral value) and currently under going medical procedure for MVR. She has also been found positive for MR (Mitral Regurgitation) and MS (Mitral Stenosis).
Dr. Has recommended for open heart surgery.
So wanted to check with fellows here and see if someone had or know who had a prior experience of such condition and has any recommendation.
FYI we live in/around Chandigarh, India.
I would really appreciate any help or pointers.
Sincerely

Hello, Rockvista! How is your mother doing?
What open heart procedure has the doctor recommended? Do they want to do a valve replacement, a repair, stent placement or etc. All of these are listed as possibilities by the NIH for various reasons.
There's even a chance she may need more than one procedure done.
Has anyone else had surgery for these conditions?
