My old lady works at the local cardiologist office out here, and that office does thousands of them, with no issues whatsoever. When issues arise, it's not from the TAVR, it's from the retarded patient who fails to follow simple directions.

She hears a lot of "oh well Joe is just stubborn"...... unless you are a solid candidate for a heart transplant, you can't really afford to screw around with your heart. Just an FYI. Follow instructions.
