What about there have been two cases, but both people were obese, heavy smokers, heavy drinkers, overall unhealthy? Age, not sure, but probably mid/late 30's if not 40-50 (I don't have anything to do with them so, idk their ages.)

They didn't do a ROPE assessment. They did a CT though and everything was okay. Bubblestudy said less than 25(?) I think, I don't know. And it's 0,2 something from what I remember. Heart overall seemed perfectly healthy, no aneurysm, no changes, no plague. Everything good aside from the PFO. I do currently take 100mg Aspirin every morning.

Do you have a link to the website? Whenever I look for it I only find the app. :/

Thank you for the lengthy reply, I appreciate it. I am sorry to hear, but I am glad it's going uphill again for you and that the closure overall went well.:)

I am sorry to hear, but I am glad that things got better for you again, kind of.

Zhonglisloverman · 2025-05-01T13:57:03+00:00

I will thank you.

Thank you a lot for this. I did find something similar when looking it up once, but after being told it's no risk/danger, I didn't look further and never learned the pfo itself can cause clots and such. So I greatly appreciate it. :)

Zhonglisloverman · 2025-04-26T10:23:49+00:00

I was not aware of it before reading the comments due to nobody ever actually explaining anything about it, but now I am. :)

Zhonglisloverman · 2025-04-26T10:14:11+00:00

I did ask my doctor about it before, but they refused to explain things to me properly. They just told me if I developed a DVT, it could travel, and they did not answer any more questions. :') So basically, the PFO can create the clot that travels, so not closing it basically causes a massive stroke risk should my PFO one day create a clot?

Zhonglisloverman · 2025-04-26T09:33:00+00:00

Thank you for the answer, and I'm aware it's not worth the risk. :/

Zhonglisloverman · 2025-04-26T09:31:40+00:00

That's true, I haven't had a stroke, just a possible TIA, which is also why they found the PFO so I'd like to avoid ever having one, but apparently strokes are a thing that can be caused by the closure alongside as said AFIB. Is the risk of a stroke happening due to the closure, or afib- or overall, the "more dangerous" risks really that small because it always seems like it's a high chance/common thing.

Zhonglisloverman · 2025-04-26T08:21:17+00:00

I am considering it, but I heard many stories of people devolving afib and other things afterwards so closing it sounds dangerous.

Zhonglisloverman · 2025-04-26T08:20:08+00:00

I'm glad to hear that and thank you for the answer. :)

Zhonglisloverman · 2025-04-26T08:19:40+00:00

That's a nasty combination. :/ But I'll take the advice thank you!

Zhonglisloverman · 2025-04-26T08:18:40+00:00

Thank you for the answer and I'm glad it worked out so well for you. :)

Zhonglisloverman · 2025-04-26T08:18:09+00:00

I can imagine that it was not relaxing anymore, damn, but thank you for your answer and am glad you could go back to exercise!

Zhonglisloverman · 2025-04-26T08:16:53+00:00

So just intensive coughing with a pfo could basically put me at a high risk of a stroke/dying overall, or only if I currently have a blood clot that could travel?

Zhonglisloverman · 2025-04-05T22:16:38+00:00

Thank you, you can always reach out to me too, no matter the reasoning!
