welcome to the best support and informational group I found on my journey to and through Mitral valve surgery! I found the thought of surgery overwhelming and had to read in here in small snippets as it was a bit of overload. However, I was able to get good questions as I met a cardiologist, had Echos and TEE, and stress tests prior to meeting surgeon. Take your time, read as much or as little at a time and start your lists. If reading journals help you, you are welcome to read mine and ask questions. I am 4.5 month post operative and doing very well! Soon, you will know what is right for you and when. Take good care, trust your instincts as none of us go through the exact experience as we travel to healing!
