Prepare for Your Doctor Visit

To prepare for your doctor visit, here are some questions you may want to ask about heart valve repair:

  • How often should I schedule a follow-up visit?
  • Do I have any activity limitations?
  • When can I go back to work?
  • What medications will I be given and what do they do?
  • Are blood transfusions necessary?
  • What type of blood tests will be run?
  • What are the symptoms of valve repair or replacement failure?
