Six Month Check
October 2, 2010

Hi all, I had my 6 mth visit with my heart surgeon on 20 September. I had an echocardiogram first followed by the visit with my surgeon. The echo showed my valves were in good working order and my surgeon is pleased with my progress. I will come and have the same follow-up visit at the 12 mth mark next March. I am also trying a silicone gel called Dermatrix to help fade my scar line in preparation for the warmer months approaching. Take care.
