My cardiologist has me scheduled for a stress test on Monday which is less than 5 weeks since my valve replacement and bypass. Has this been normal for others?

I went back to work with restrictions at 6 weeks.

Why a stress test? I have one scheduled for 6 months post op. But unless you require one for work I don't see the need

This is a low level test to establish a new baseline, usually required for some rehabs. The goal will be to get you to 70%.

Take good care of you! You be the focus and do all the right things to stay on track!!
Hang in there guy. Looking forward to more news.
Glad to hear you're OK, Conrad. Rest up!
I had blood count problems, too. And very low blood pressure. A unit of blood really helped. Don't worry, they will take care of you.
hang in there Conrad, we are pulling for you
