Heart failure (HFpEF) and CKD with EGFR drop from 52 to 38 in 8 months - help!
However in June last year he went in for open
heart
valve
surgery
. He had complications after surgery and was put back on a ventilator for a week because I was told 'he stopped producing urine' and had a lot of fluid around his body.

4 open heart surgery’s
Another 7 years passed by and thankfully I had my beautiful daughter in that time I came to the decision to get the mechanical valve back in but this time around the
surgery
didn’t go to plan as I needed to get my
heart
restarted after the
surgery
and needed a pace maker fitted.

As far as her
heart
surgery
is concerned her progress appears to be good. It's her legs that are holding her back now. She stopped taking it after speaking to doctor. Just hoping this is the problem.

Valve Surgery
I am due to have a tricuspid valve replacement with open
heart
surgery
in the next few weeks. I have been getting some conflicting info regarding wearing a bra or not after the procedure and what type if necessary is best.

Not prepared for the anxiety that follows heart surgery
Reading other people's journeys will help I'm sure. 5 days after major open
heart
surgery
I/ we are sent home "fixed" it's so hard accepting and trusting this. I have had a few meltdowns had the paramedics out who were able to reassure me until I saw my GP following morning.

Bra tips
Hi, I would like some help. I had some very comfortable supporting bras bought from my heart surgery.Alas these haven't offered much support at all after my breast procedure and became too tight. I had underestimated how big my boob would swell after surgery, the haematoma and seroma didn't help Ideas

Introducing Myself
She is 93 and she has arthritis and had
heart
surgery
about 6 years ago. Recently she has deteriorated and, although I'm familiar with the care system and its limitations, I find myself struggling. I work 5 days a week and I have recently started a new job.

What should you expect from your GP after major heart surgery, shirt term and long term?
Apart from my initial call to request repeat warfarin prescription in which case I was told to go online, my GP has not acknowledged the last 2½ months of my urgent
surgery
. I am a congenital
heart
patient who had been trying to get cardio check ups in London every year to no avail.

Medicinal Cannabis
He’s suggested that he would refer me back to the Spinal Surgeons and I’m very concerned as they originally said it was too risky to have further
surgery
due to my
Heart
Condition. Does anyone have any experience with Medical Cannabis?

Further to aortic stenosis question.
When I saw the cardiologist earlier this month 9th May when he told me I should have either open
heart
surgery
or TOVI depending on what after testing I was suitable for, I could not decide, therefore he has arranged a telephone consultation with me on 7th June to ascertain my decision.
