I just found out recently that I have to have this surgery done for MALs, I’m 29 married with 2 children and just want to know how was the coping after surgery? Will I be out of work for a long period of time? What can and can’t I do? I have so many questions, supposed to meet with the surgeon soon to go over everything I guess I’m just nervous, and also anyone have this surgery with valvular heart disease?
