I had MVR surgery in September of 06. It wwas my second time through the ribe cage. I also got a Maze procedure because I had been in Afib for 4 years and none of the usual meds worked.
My surgeon told it might take 6 months for the maze procedure to work. For a long time I didn't post over here because I really didn't feel that great and didn't want to sound whiny.
BUT my heart kept improving and in the last month the artrial fibrillation has started to fade away. I am virtually in sinus and feel better than I have since this whole thing began.
I have more to add, but I gotta run........
