Search for heart hospitals that specialize in heart valve treatment.
I get a little dizzy from the beta blockers and thinners which affects my eyes so I've had trouble watching TV or reading. I've taken to flicking through the newspaper and magazines. Yesterday I spoke to a couple of friends and my husband and I popped out for lunch and a walk about. Made a huge difference to my moody. Today I'm much more positive and just done Christmas shopping online!
Vent away ! We all know where you're at. It does get easier as you get more mobile.
I actually found myself googling comedians on my phone and laughing (though it really hurt - but a good hurt) was the most helpful. You need to laugh a lot - and I will tell you this far out - I still find the need to laugh...and I take no drugs post op and had a stable recovery with no issues. Your body went through a lot - patience is needed. Believe me, I learned patience. :)
