Hi all-
Does anyone know the approximate time it takes after major surgery for the immune system to get to its pre-surgery status?
Joe has had the unfortunate experience of catching some rather nasty viral infections a little while after surgery 2 years ago. One of them I suspect may have played a roll in developing his mitral and tricuspid valve leaks, which are now requiring his new surgery on July 18. It also might have caused the scar tissue formation in his lung requiring his lung surgery 4 months ago. This is only a hunch on my part, nothing could prove it. But it does linger in the back of my mind.
