Hi.
Can you please help me with a couple of questions?
I'll be going back to yoga class for the first time since my Sept. 24, 2008 double valve replacement surgery and I'm concerned about positions (like downward dog) that put your head in a lower position than your heart: (1) Will it put too much pressure on my heart, since it feels like my neck blood vessels get filled when my head is lower than my heart?, and (2) Could the threads used to sew in the valves get loosened by my being upside down?
Thanks for your help.
