Out with the old. This time bomb is gone from my body. Don't think about the pain of recovery, just focus on the positive outcome!

It now all looks thin No more fat part. Where it stops is root and valve Can't see in the MRI It's a MRI of my artery pre op.

How are you feeling after 9 weeks?

Its been now 11 weeks or so and I am still a little sore. Dull aches and pains. I do cardio rehab 3 times a week and that makes a big difference.

I'm so happy it's over and I'm on the other side. My doc saved my valve, he was able to repair it. I feel very good today!

Two Thumbs up!!!!!!!!!! Welcome to the recovery side. It's a bumpy road but it goes pretty fast and gently smooths out. You got a room with a view.
