That might speed up that backlog of casesâ€¦.The UK must not have the amount of interventional cardiologists that we haveâ€¦

Celebrating 12 weeks post AVR today with a long beach walk with the pooch. I felt great! Recovery has been up and down, but steadily better as the weeks past. I highly recommend cardiac rehab sessions once cleared following surgery.

Congrats on your 12 week Anniversary!! You look like you're doing great! I completely agree that cardiac rehab makes a big difference after surgery! There's a lot of life to live!! â¤

Love you and your pooch. You no doubt realize that your dog is your best therapy for recovery. Thankfully my wife does not read these but Cassie does.

Thanks all. Day 2 and a little more aches probably from aesthetics wearing off. BP a little low; but as expected. Got up for a walk around icu. Plan to go to step down later today.
