About Me (In My Own Words)
My recovery has been rocky at times. I spent 8 days in the hospital after my surgery. There were issues with my blood pressure and fluid retention. Gradually, I increased my walking distance to 3 miles a day by mid-February. At the beginning of March, I was hospitalized for pneumonia and heart failure. At the end of March, I was diagnosed with pericarditis. I had a perfectly working tricuspid valve before surgery, and now have moderate regurgitation with a dilated right atrium and right ventricle.
