My husband had AVR on 10/2007. He is 70 years old, and he is doing fine, a little weak in the morning, but nothing serious. After AVR he lost around 10 lbs. and BP was normal 120/70. He have an appt to see his cardiologist in Abril. Now he is back to his regular weight (132 lb), but his BP have risen to around 125-130 over 85-98 and his PR is in the upper 80 to 90.
Before AVR he was on Altace 10mg, and his BP was is control. but after surgery Dr. changes it to Metropol ER 25 mg.
Has anyone experience such changes in BP and PR after AVR?
Also any suggestion on a GOOD BP Monitor. We had an OMRON Monitor but was very erractic. Bought a new electric one from CVS and is the same.
Any suggestion?
