I had my follow up appointment with my surgeon yesterday and I received some excellent news!!! He was very pleased with my device and my heart was functioning as best as it could. Since I've started on this journey, good news is hard to come by. The only other time I can remember getting good news from the cardiologist was after three months of trying, we finally reduced the amount of fluid around my heart and my lungs were happy! So I (and my mom) was very pleased to hear good news two weeks post surgery.
The scar looks weird to me, but he assures me that will smooth over and look much better. I really hope it does. I'm thankful for the successful procedure! Just thinking back on how nervous I was before surgery but it actually was not that bad. Had a horrible allergic reaction to meds and had hives and a rash on my chest, neck, and face. But I'm responding well, so I'm over it. Happy Happy Joy Joy!
