Look forward to seeing more of your effervescent personality on the site!

- Hey Karen
welcome to the Mechanical Heart Valve Support Group, and I hope you are now well on the road to recovery from your op and your new valve. Feel free to post any questions, observations or ask any questions from any of us - we are all here to help one another!
Like to hear also about your surgery and if it was keyhole or the 'full monty' chest crack -we have not had a detailed report from any of our members on keyhole surgery operation?
cheers
