Phyllis Petersen I'm not sure how long it'll take you after OHS to get back to hiking, but I had minimally-invasive robotic mitral valve repair on 10/13/16 and took a 4 hour hike on 12/26/16. I took a lot of breaks and turned back before the rest of my family, but it was great to get back out there. I lived for a little over a year in Rye, NH back in the early 80's. The hiking is fantastic up in the White Mts., so good luck with getting out there again soon.
