During a unrelated doctor's appointment last week, my heart rate was 93 bpm. Admittedly, I'm not as active as I was pre-surgery, but I'm beginning to wonder if it will ever come down. Perhaps with a bit more exercise and less stress at work! :-) Best regards, Tim I am 7 months post MV repair. During a unrelated doctor’s appointment last week, my heart rate was 93 bpm.

Since my I am fairly athletic and my pre-surgery resting HR was ~ 52-58, I became a bit concerned as I am now ~100 at rest. This article helped to reassure me that this is a usual post surgery phenomenon. I now have a pulse monitor on and will monitor the changes, as time goes by.
