Aortic valve replacement, and a pacemaker. 21. what alcohol is allowed? if in moderation, beer, liquor, wine? how about cannabis if vaporized?

None usually: Valve replacement in a young person usually means a mechanical valve with lifelong anti coagulation with coumadin (warfarin). Therefor, alcohol usually not a good idea.
