About Me

I had no symptoms at all just some AF so I was amazed when I was told I had a severe heart issue that required AVR 😳. I had the surgery with no issues and recovery was brilliant not nearly as bad I I feared. 10 days post op I was at the coast eating fish and chips. Anyway my purpose for joining this community is to give any help I can to people who fear the surgery as I did. Thanks
