EF up 9 points!

[kschroed]

The official reading of my one-year post-op echo is in, and my EF went up to 45 from a dismal 36. I am so happy! (This is a result of my tissue mitral valve replacement.) The worst experience of my life (8 days in the CICU) has finally paid some dividends.

Those of you who are on the other side of surgery need to know that what you are about to do will pay off in the end.
