[quote=Anonymous]Your mom is in the hospital, ask them to have a surgical consult for a TAVR. The surgeon who evaluates your parent is able to take all those issues into account. He or she should be able to say whether or not she remains a candidate for surgery or not. Your mom’s symptoms are very consistent with poorly controlled heart failure and obviously exacerbated by her valve problem. I am suggesting you get more information while she is in the hospital to help make a decision with her on the best next steps. And give her and the rest of the family some time to process where she is regarding remaining time. [/quote]
