After 8 days I'm home from the hospital
Last Thursday I traveled 3 hours North to have Open Heart Surgery for a leaking Aortic valve regurgitating at 63%. My surgeon sawed me open and installed a 25mm St Jude mechanical aortic heart valve into my already existing synthetic aortic root graft that was installed during emergency OHS six plus years ago after I found out I was living with a 7.3 cm aortic aneurysm.
BP is getting on track
INR is in range
My chest is solid and I can already side sleep and lay flat on my back!
The real star is my wife. She never left my side and slept in chairs and waiting rooms for nearly a week.
