Hang on in there and ask for help if you think you need it. It's bound to hurt and it's bound to be scary sometimes, so take it easy and look after yourself. I had a mitral valve replaced amongst other things 8 months ago and thought I would never feel better and suddenly I do! I hated the pills but now they're becoming my new normal oh, I still don't like them though but I'm sure they help. It's early days for you but do for help if you need it. Best of luck and you always have this forum to turn to.
