I am glad you are doing so well. I am pleased they were able to control the BP. Good luck with the palpitations. A better energy level, solid rehab experience and less needed sleep all sound good. I hope the next month will be a great month of healing. Take good care of yourself. Best.

Travis Watson posted a note for Sidney that says:

I think it is somewhat normal to have increased BP after a valve repair for two reasons. One, you where on blood pressure medication during and after your surgery. Two, your valve was leaking which would make the pressure less. It is fixed now so you pressure is elevated. Your body should adjust over time. If not, your doctor can put you on a low dose of medication.

Sidney Nash Thanks Travis! They moved my appointment up to Monday, so we may change some meds.

Praying and hoping Sidney is doing ok since there hasn't been any updates to his journal for over a week. I was at Duke on Thursday and would have checked on him if I knew he was still there. I'll be starting my own journal on here soon.

I expect that you've gained confidence in Chad Hughes and the Duke team members as you've spent time with them. They are very good at this. You'll also have the same response to the staffs in intensive care and the "step-down" units. All the best in surgery and after.
