I'm looking forward to 3mth milestone. My surgeon before the operation said I'ld be 90% at 6wks and 100% at 12wks. He also said that although I didn't realise it, I was probably only 80/85% prior to surgery... My husband is already worried what 100% looks like, when well I run about doing 101 things as it is!!!
In line with that, since you're only dealing with one valve, have you asked if it could be done minimally invasively or even robotically? If your surgeon says it must be done OHS, is it too late for you to get a second and even third opinion, just to see what other professionals think?
Best wishes to you.
