Hi Dan, regarding your incision pain and itching, has a doctor taken a closer look? Any chance that some type of foreign object may be irritating it, like a partial stitch?

Hey Dan, I read your post and had to write. I'm having a robotic mitral valve repair at Mayo Rochester on Wednesday. I sure hope my repair and recovery goes as well as yours did. I have what they call a "Barlows valve". Is that what you had as well?

No Juts a torn chord with regurgitation. My valve was pretty text book and they caught it early enough for a 100% repair. The doctors at Mayo are very good and the Cardiac ICU is the best. You are in very good hands.
