Good luck Pekster11, i have just been scheduled for Apr 19th, after some Covid delays here also.
Am very symptomatic now with some challenging nights
we will be healing in parallel
Good luck aswell (y)
I'm asymptomatic ...still running 10km on my treadmill most days with no problems
we'll be able to compare notes on the surgery and post surgery recovery process

10Km per day, your in better shape than i was going into to 2010 surgery
maybe my surgeon will agree to Kryptonite Rib cage glue once again, maybe giving me an edge on recovery...smile
at least i will have a 3 day running start on you, which is only fair with the age difference, big smile

I believe that this will be a big plus for you going into surgery. I stayed physically active hiking up a 1,200 ft mountain leading right up to my surgery 3 weeks ago, and I believe this had a lot to do with my quick recovery.
Best of luck to both you and Luckyguy. It is kind of cool having recovery buddies that you go through about the same time with. Amy was my recovery buddy and it is helpful to compare notes coming out the other side.

i hope so.
my resting heart rate sometimes falls into the 40s...so i reckon my cardio strength is pretty good.
but we'll see.
there's no guarantees with heart surgery. incredibly this will be the first time in my life i've ever been under a general anaesthetic
 
thanks (y)
had my pre-op today

will be admitted to hospital on wednesday afternoon
op, is on thursday morning...nearly there now :oops:
Good luck with the surgery. You are going in in the best shape you can be, so I'm sure you will be fine. Just take it one day at a time.
 
sat in my garden on a lovely warm, sunny spring day

going to be the last day or normality for a while.
admission to the hospital tomorrow
am surprisingly calm...maybe when i'm admitted and spend the night on the ward the nerves will start :p
