Hi John,
I did the same surgery 4 weeks ago BAV repair. My recovery goes very well, but I have also problem with legs.
Different feet sensations started before surgery 6 months ago - cold feet when i am in bed, tingling, feeling that they are warm... My cardio surgeon thinks it is effect of a beta blocker, but his opinion is that now it is good for me to continue with this therapy.
Do you still have problem with legs?
Thanks
Marko
