Best of luck on your recovery. It seems like your surgery went well. I’m two and a half years out from my replacement and everything is back to normal. Working full time again and I can mow my lawn again without taking a break every two of three minutes. Follow your doctors’ advice and you’ll be fine. Take care.

Wishing you continued success with your surgery. Best bit of advice from my doctor was :Rest! It’s healing to rest. Went home and took two naps a day for a few weeks.

Mava Reif Thats something I truly will obey. Thanks for your prayers and support

Louanna Miller I needed naps for the first 2 weeks post discharge. Listen to your body and you will be fine.

Mava Reif Oh my! Thank you John, for this encouraging post tonight! I've been so busy with last minute rushing that I didn't post anything. I've been a little sad today, knowing tomorrow is pre-testing early & then the surgery comes early on Tues. I'm a little sad for my parents who are in their 90's and are trying to be brave. But I know God is with us, & your post just lifted my spirits as I had to bed. What a sweet gift you have me tonight! Thank you!

Dan Baltazor Prayers to you and your parents Mava.

Mava Reif Thank you, for your prayers

Mava, In August I had Mitro Valve repair for MVP and severe regurgitation. Your symptoms sound so very much like mine. I’m 5 months out and feel much better. Each of us have a different journey through surgery and healing. Be gentle with yourself, listen to your body and allow yourself the necessary time to heal. If I can answer any questions, I’m here for you. Praying for a successful surgery and complete recovery next week.

Mava Reif Thank you so much.

The MVP seems to advance more quickly all of a sudden. At least that's how it felt to me. After the surgery, one of the weirdest things was not hearing my heart anymore, especially at night while trying to fall asleep. All the best on your surgery and recovery!

Mava Reif I have been so busy getting ready for the surgery that I missed your post to me. This all came about so quickly that it's hard for me to realize I now have to deal with these heart issues & can't just return to normal. But since normal for me has become so inactive from exhaustion, I am hoping for a new better normal. Lol!

Louanna Miller I completely agree with Phyllis. You will regain your strength and energy will slowly improve. You will have a new normal and speaking from experience, my new normal is so much better than the 8 months before surgery.

Mava Reif Thanks ladies, I'm feeling more at peace about my post surgery life. 😊
