Hi
I found this forum very useful and informative. Though I live outside North America ( I live in India) but this forum has benefitted me a lot. I started reading the posts before I went for surgery. I travel to United states almost every second/third month for business before my surgery, so I am quite familiar with US though.
I got my AVR ( St Jude mechanical) on 8th of April. I am home and recovering. I feel lot of muscular pain in my shoulders and upper back. I feel more when I get out of or into bed. Any suggestions. I am trying pillows under my back and arms , it helps liitle bit. Is it normal? I do feel heavyness in my strenum. I think I was using my arms a lot which I try controlling after I read few posts.
I some how believed that I would be able to start working part time (I am in software business) after 4/6 weeks post op? Is it too ambitious?
