Ray Lang Just a quick little question: how long after your MV surgery did the tenderness in your chest go away. For me, it's been six mos and I still have some not a lot of tenderness. Every once in a rare while a slight pain in the middle of my chest. Thanks. R

Mike Roskowinski Awesome Tracy. Glad to hear that you are doing so well. It’s awesome to be that far into recovery. I am 4 weeks now and waking 5-7 miles a day. Started Cardio rehab yesterday but they won’t let me run yet. No reason to hurry things like you said. Follow orders and rest. Can’t wait to be able to run and use the stair master at the gym. Weight lifting and golf are also coming in a while.

Emily Rowley I love your Heart Engraved Message! 😍💜 I've been told to not run 🏃‍♀️ But I love it!

Lisa Purdy This has always been my mantra. I intend on running right up to surgery on the 18th, but to be honest, after 18 years of constant running, my body will enjoy the break I think. I’ll be ready to get back at it before long though!

14 months Mitral Valve Repair, tumor. Moderate Regurg now, on the watch list. I’ve decided to trust the process (for today 😉)let the worry go- causes too much anxiety- Regurg may never progress. 11 miles jogged today. Enjoy each day given to us.

Hi Tracy!
I had mitral valve repair surgery on November 19, 2018 and that's one of my concerns, whether or not the valve will start leaking again.
Definitely don't want to go through open heart surgery again.
Like you said though, gotta let the worry go. It does cause too much anxiety. No need for that.
You look great Tracy and I wish you all the best in your continued recovery.
May God's peace be yours as you go forward on this Heart Warrior journey.

Dan Baltazor Just stay on the watch list and go on each day as you are today. You'll know in time what is to come of it. Worry doesn't change our outcome. 11 miles!! Wow!!
