I am 7 months out from MV repair and although I can feel my fitness slowly improving when I try and get going with some decent training - or what I called decent training prior to op I get tired. For example today as part of my job as a teacher we had a 19km run. I was great for the first 12 km ( hilly course on a hot day) and was passing other teachers etc but then fell in an absolute heap with no power in my legs etc. Can anybody indicate if they experienced these bouts of dissapointment as they recovered and how long did it take before you resembled your former self in a physical capabilities sense. I have had the remodelling of the heart mentioned to me by my cardio and he said this can take up to a year. When I cannot do the things I want and at the intensity I used to I get very anxious.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks for all the help so far.
