Hi, I’m 34, in great health (apart from my heart) and need a mitral valve repair but will need to be full open heart. I’m scheduled for 2/25/25. I’m actually getting married in June of 2025 as well. Big year! Was curious if anyone had any tips for how to get myself as ready as possible for post surgery or if there is anything you *wish you knew*. Thank you in advance :)

Robert Miller Check out the learning center. The most important thing is to follow what your surgeon is telling you. Don't overdue it even if you feel great. The bones need to heal. Do the breathing exercises. Make sure you have enough pillows of different sizes. Maybe get a new electrical bed or couch to adjust the angle, etc.
