Meeting the Man and Getting Lasered - November 17, 2009

Went to visit the Chief Cardiac Surgeon that Lily saw Novembe 9 when I was in the ER. The good doctor wants to meet the people that he is going to cut into, and not just talk to the wife.

Plan on removal and replacement of aortic valve with a pig valve in late January - no urgency, need to have certain tests done and check things out. This include a neurological exam to make sure the muscle tremors I exhibit is not due to a brain tumor. (Don't want to waste a pig valve.)

Afterwards I went to the opthamologist to have the blood vessels retinas of both eyes lased (yellow laser) to stop bleeding into the eye. Right eye needed more work that the left - flashes of light while wearing a lens attachment on the eyeball (?!)
