Talk to Cardiac Surgeon on Volve Leakage

Hi doctors, around one year ago I first found out about a heart valve problem/leakage and since then I’ve had symptoms including palpitations, shortness of breath, head heaviness, weakness, anxiety, fatigue and poor sleep. I recently had coronary angiography and doctors said my heart arteries are normal with no blockage, but I have now been referred to the cardiothoracic surgery team because of severe valve leakage and another narrowing issue.

Echo 27/03/2026:

Severely dilated left ventricle with normal systolic function (LVEF ~55%)

Normal sized right heart with normal systolic function

Severe aortic regurgitation caused by valve prolapse

Severe mitral regurgitation secondary to rheumatic mitral leaflets

I wanted to ask what usually happens next before surgery, what precautions/recovery expectations are common, and how serious this stage normally is. Any professional advice or similar experiences would be appreciated.now im stable on medication.
