Prolapse bowel surgery: What was your recovery like?

I am scheduled for rectal prolapse surgery on February 23 if I can get my cardiac clearance. I’m hoping that my A-Fib doesn’t become a factor in getting it.
I’m so happy to see a response on this thread since I haven’t heard from anybody who has had this diagnosis or surgery. I was thinking I was the only one out here…
I am nervous because of my heart condition and the seriousness of the operation. I would just like to know how other people did and what their recovery was like.
Thanks again for your input. Please keep me informed of your progress.

@baz Good evening, just saw you have Afib. On March 5, 2022, I was told I had CHF along with Afib. Since then I have been in sinus rhythm. I got rid of all cardiac meds and other stuff they just stuffed me with. I only take a blood thinner plus what I have taken for years. This has been a long road of recovery and my body is still in complete fatigue and slowly coming back. I worry about it also with the surgery. My cardio doc gave me the release. EKG and Echo were normal. So it is one day at a time and I am trying to gain weight which seems hopeless. Everything is geared toward diets and losing weight. Any suggestions? Let me know how you are on the cardiac side of health. Take care. KLH
