Happy days
100 days since open heart surgery for leaking mitral valve. This is me at the summit of CATBELLS this morning. Reached the top in 36 minutes non stop. All thanks to hard work and the fantastic rehab girls at Papworth. All those small steps lead to larger steps lead to the success I had today.

New here
Hi everyone. I am new here. My story began approx 2 years ago when I woke up not being able to breath. I was taken to the great PAPWORTH hospital in Cambridge. After tests I was told that I had to have open heart surgery to replace my Mitral valve. This was done with pigs tissue making up the new valve

Gluten free seeded white bread.
Hi everyone, After the bread poll we had many members saying how hard they found GF bread baking so here's a gluten free white seeded loaf that I baked this morning and I also picked some home grown tomatoes, I'm growing a few varieties as you can see and so far they all taste good but I think there's

Creamy, Healthy Carrot Soup
Had to make something with with all the leftover carrots I had from my potato soup. First time for me. Combined two recipes. A little garlicky but not overpowering. Onions, fresh ginger, vegetable stock. No cream added, but plenty thick. Forgot the crusty bread at the grocery store so used fig and olive

T3 sources
Hi It’s been a long time since I’ve been on this site. I have been taking T3 for a long time now under approval by an endo. But I’ve had to source and pay for my own. I had quite a lot of T3 and I’m now running low. I have also been dealing with other issues and a few months ago had open heart surgery

Prognosis for compensated cirrhosis
I have cardiac cirrhosis from right sided heart failure. Tricuspid valve is regurgitating severely sending blood back to liver, congesting it to the point of cirrhosis. I have no liver symptoms. Found incidentally on CT scan. Anyway, I know that survival is 9-12 years for compensated cirrhosis at diagnosis

Atrial tachycardia
I was initially diagnosed with atrial fibrillation. However, when I went for an ablation and was seen by the EP he decided it wasn’t AF but atrial tachycardia. Apparently symptom are almost adenoidal and I’m on similar meds to all those with AF My problem is, there doesn’t seem to be anyone else here

Another update on 5th heart surgery….
Ok, well I’ve now been here for almost 2 weeks and hoping to be discharged today. Thought I’d give a bit more of a comprehensive update (although don’t want to scare anyone!) Quite a few problems with various levels (INR, potassium and hemoglobin) which has lead to several blood transfusions and potassium
