After four weeks, I was traveling and working almost as usual. I showed my postop echocardiogram to my cardiologist (he did not know Poston because he was in another town) and I have to quote his words “You were not operated on by a doctor, this was the work of an artist”. He saw a zero-leaking valve that almost killed me four weeks earlier.
