Posting this thread to share my experiences. I am 6 months post-op now. Fortunately, recovery has been very smooth (touch wood). Life is back to normal within one month after surgery. Back to work by third week after post-op.
Cardio is happy with heart size remodeling at 2 month check, but not much improvement in EF and muscle thickness. He mentioned that we may see more improvement as time progress.
He put me on 1 year check-up schedule, but agreed to see me sooner than that to evaluate getting me off of beta blocker.
Warafarin management is surprisingly smooth. But, side effects of metoprolol is still an issue. I occasionally feel dizziness (2-3 secs) when getting up.
