Article: Pour in 1 cup (240 mL) cold water. Feel free to double or triple this recipe to make a larger batch. For your first batch, try 1 cup (200 g) granulated white sugar and 1 cup (200 g) brown sugar. Once you've tasted the end result, you can play around with different ratios. The more brown sugar you use, the stronger the molasses flavor will be. For extra strong flavor replace the brown sugar with a raw sugar like demerara or turbinado. For a thinner syrup, halve the amount of syrup. Replace some or all of the sugar with maple sugar to get an authentic maple flavor. Maple sugar tends to be expensive, and in some areas may only be available online. For an easy imitation of real maple syrup, add tsp (2.5 mL) maple flavor extract, available from baking supply stores or online. Without it, the syrup will taste more like molasses which is still delicious on pancakes or waffles. You can substitute vanilla or almond extract for a more unusual pancake syrup. Bring the water and sugar mixture to a boil, then reduce to low heat. Stir continuously for 35 minutes, or until every sugar grain has dissolved. The longer you boil the syrup, the thicker it will be once cooled. This recipe is plenty thick already, so you should be fine taking it off the heat right away. Refrigerate the syrup in a clean container to discourage microorganisms. This will typically last 6 months in the refrigerator. You can add a small spoonful of vodka to preserve it even longer, but most people discover that the syrup has mysteriously vanished long before the expiration date.Storing in a squeeze bottle make the syrup easy to use.

Article: In many cases of mitral stenosis, surgery is needed eventually but not immediately. Most cases can be controlled in the interim with medications; however, most cases will eventually require surgery once the condition gets to be severe enough. Doctors call this approach "watchful waiting." You are advised to receive regular echocardiograms to monitor your mitral stenosis, and to see if and when your condition progresses to the point of potentially needing surgery. The frequency of your echocardiogram examinations will depend upon the severity of your mitral stenosis. Although medications cannot treat or cure mitral stenosis directly, they can help to ease symptoms and to improve your overall heart and lung function. Some medications that you and your doctor may wish to discuss include: Blood thinning medications such as Warfarin (coumadin), plus or minus aspirin, to prevent blood clot formation and thus reduce your risk of a stroke. Medications such as Beta-blockers (e.g. Metoprolol) to decrease your heart rate and thus allow the chambers of your heart to fill with blood more effectively. A water pill (called a "diuretic"), such as hydrochlorothiazide or furosemide, to decrease the swelling in your lower extremities. The only definitive treatment for mitral stenosis is to have the valve surgically repaired or replaced. Your doctor can go over the pros and cons of each surgical option with you if and when it comes time for you to receive surgery there are minimally invasive surgical options to consider for some patients.

Be aware that treatment for mitral stenosis may not be needed immediately. Opt for medical treatment to reduce your symptoms. Consider valve repair or valve replacement surgery.
