New diagnosis today. Trying to figure what to do..

I take 1-atorvastatin, 2-carvedilol, 4-amlodipine, 1-aspirin, 1-multivitamin. Forever. I set my pills up every six months little compartmented containers. It’s easy peasy. Cholesterol, heart rate, blood pressure. I take one round in the morning and one round in the evening. Easiest thing in the world. I do not have an artificial valve or a porcine valve so I don’t need to take any anti-rejection drugs. I should mention I had some pretty serious problems with the Met Forman when they were trying to I guess control my blood sugar. I would be leery of that medication unless you’ve had some experience with it and affect you.

Without trying to compare...
I have mild heart failure post OHS surgery (aneurysm/dissection/prosthetic valve and aorta).
My drug names... atorvastatin, bilsoprolol, perindopril, warfarin, spironolactone
they do the following (and I don't really care which ones do what)
heart function, heart strength, aortic strength, reduced pressure, and mitigation of valve-related stroke

Thanks so much for all the info.
You really seem to have a good understanding of everything and have it under control .
I’m just starting to read about this and take it more seriously .
Besides all that you’ve been through with your surgery do you feel that it has prevented you from enjoying life as much as you would like?
I’m seriously worried that after having the surgery I’ll just be aged and very restricted.
Not sure about when to have the surgery yet.
