Hi Cathy and Christy, I wish you all the best in your upcoming surgeries. I did my mitra replacement 2 years ago, I was 38 years old so my doctor choose for me mechanical valve. I was pretty very sick at that time and after my surgery and back to normal, you can say not 100 percent but atleast a decent life. Am also on warfarin and I check my blood every 2 weeks. All the best and keep us posted after the surgery.

Hi everyone, I hope this post finds everyone well. This question goes to Adam, I love in kenya and vaccines for the Covid 19 aint that readily available. Now that they have restocked near my town I would like to know from you guys if any of you that have had the vaccine got any side effects. For a few years now I have become very sensitive to medication, I get bad reactions after taking certain medications. So please update me on how u guys faired after the vacation. And big thanks again to everyone for all the support we give each other. Be blessed

Civita Fahey I had Covid, though a mild case in Janaury and then got the vaccine. I had no reaction to the first shot, but the second shot I had body aches, chills, sweats for about 24 hours. Everyone reacts differently, but either way, its only for 24 or less. My cardiologist was all for taking the vaccine and I felt it was the best thing to do.

Craig Cole Hi Fathiya. My wife and I both received the Covid vaccine (Pfizer). No issue with either shot other than a little tenderness around the injection sight. Though we still practice appropriate safety measures (masks, distancing, etc) it has given us great peace of mind, especially with family.

Rose Madura I got Pfizer shot in March. Sore arm both times about 12 hours after the shot. Ibuprofin helped. My glands reacted somewhat to 2nd shot but that was my immune system kicking in. Don't buy into conspiracy theories.
Susan Lynn I had both Moderna shots (second one this past Friday) and had no issues.
