Severe TR & Valve Replacement

Severe TR & Valve Replacement

Hi,

I had Bacterial Endocarditis 6 Years ago im now 26 years old and 3 years ago it was discovered I Had Severe TR from this. About a year and half ago i start get chest & Abdominal pains and Pulsing Veins surely this must be related to the Severe TR ? I don't want to take painkillers as it damages your liver. I have seen a Cardiothoracic heart surgeon who doesn't think its worth replacing, i said i think it does need replacing so we had an argument !!

Anyone have any experience with this sort of thing involving the Tricuspid Valve, i have had no prior surgical operations and Isolated Severe TR.

Regards

P Lee
