Good luck!

A nation can survive its fools, and even the ambitious. But it cannot survive treason from within. An enemy at the gates is less formidable, for he is known and carries his banner openly. But the traitor moves amongst those within the gate freely, his sly whispers rustling through all the alleys, heard in the very halls of government itself. For the traitor appears not a traitor; he speaks in accents familiar to his victims, and he wears their face and their arguments, he appeals to the baseness that lies deep in the hearts of all men. He rots the soul of a nation, he works secretly and unknown in the night to undermine the pillars of the city, he infects the body politic so that it can no longer resist. A murderer is less to fear.

Sounds as non-invasive as possible, the way you describe it. I will have to mention it to my father as I know in his surgery they could not repair one of the valves, and it leaks.
Hang tough, QP!

After these next 3 days of further testing I'll give you as much feedback as possible as I learn more about the procedure...
