Hello all, I am 3 days post-op and feeling relatively well. He replaced my valve with the Edwards Inspiris and also replaced the ascending aorta which was weakening. I have been walking 500 feet 3 times a day and plan to increase next go. I still have my chest tube and catheter in, hopefully tomorrow will be the end of those. Amy Berger got hers out in less than 24 hours, wow!
