This is my two year anniversary of mitral valve replacement surgery. Best wishes to anyone going through this. You're going to make it. You're a lot tougher than you know.
I have a heart problem , I am from Kenya 🇰🇪 if any one out there sponsor my medication I would be very grateful and God will bless you abundantly, I live under feer of death.. please help me.
I had emergency 🚨 Aortic Dissection surgery with the news that it was life and death. The Surgeon told me that, if he couldn’t mend it, once he had tried, that I would die. I never expected to wake up. Three weeks of intensive care and a week in a drug induced coma. How do you thank a man who saves your life? I haven’t seen him in the last ten years since discharge. Wonderful, clever man.
The news that I had to have that operation would have killed me alone! So happy for you. I'm literally terrified of open heart surgery and I am probably going to need it.
@@QueenNoTeetha151 So was I but you get through it. The object of the excercise when you are in hospital is to get out and go home, but the day I left hospital I cried like a child because I diddnt want to leave!
@@fluffytail6355 For me, it was the opposite. The surgeon wanted me to stay an extra couple of days in the hospital, but I found after 5 weeks I had enough and wanted to get out.
I was never told that by the surgeon that performed the surgery on me. I spent 4 weeks in ICU and 1 week on a different floor recovering. I do not know how much time I spent in a drug induced coma.
@mk bhd Good boss check out our RUclips video where he meets his dad for the first time in 49 years his surgery is in there as well super cool documentary.
He said in incision on your chest may cause discomfort.it's more like my sternum was cut in half and then wired together with stainless steel and it hurt like hell....😀😀😀
Well now a day.They don’t cut half of your chest wide opening for hart surgery anymore.Now a day,they uses lasers and many HD micro devices cameras to guide those long probes with sharp cutting tips tools to do the jobs in any surgical surgery.
@@Chu3505 depends on the procedure being used, some procedures they still need to cut open the sternum, I would know, I am getting a sternum cut very soon for a heart surgery procedure happening in a month or so.
@@Tomtom88983 I'm having heart surgery next week bro. I'm getting a onyx valve at 20 years old. It was suppose to be valetines day but got postponed cause of the doctor. I have no symptoms, but severe regurgitation and stenosis. Basically a early surgery. Getting mine done at northwestern in Chicago. Mine is a mini sternotmoy. 3 to 5 inch incision.
@@-SVN- Wow! I have Congenital Heart Disease, I have upper pulmonary venous drainage into SVC and a L-R PFO between my left and right atrium... I'll be having my procedure done at Prince Charles hospital, Brisbane Australia. I haven't been told specifics of my surgery yet but I have been told it will be an open heart procedure, I'm getting filled in on the details on the 24th. Good luck for your surgery mate, I'm also 20 years old, I'm surprised really that they didn't find my Congenital heart disease until now but according to my doctor I wouldn't have had any symptoms when I was younger.
@@Tomtom88983 will get through this man. Just got to stay postive. You can still make out the light even in the darkness. do you feel symptoms now that you are older? i have high energy and feel fine, its crazy im having surgery tbh.
I had and atrial septal defect that got repaired November of 2019 it’s very common and can usually be repaired with a catheter but mine was too big so I had to have open heart surgery and they didn’t catch it bc they couldn’t hear the murmur till I was 12 bc the bigger the hole or defect the harder it is to hear
Glad that these folks are so lucky after surgery. My experience has been so much worse. I had a narrowing aortic valve but had no issues before surgery. Once the valve was replaced, I have had breathlessness, faigue, ongoing chest pain, dizziness and have nearly blacked out while climbing, something that I had done for years before surgery. My cardiologist had me expecting huge improvements in well being but after 8 months, I would give anything to have rejected an aortic valve replacement. Please do youself one favour and get the opinion of more than one specialist.
Gee this is a dramatic re enactment ok.Well there are real people in the video having the surgery. They have explaining what to do for the recovery and rehabilitation after the surgery.
The ICU part is not peaceful like that 🙃 every time you barely wake up they are ripping a new tube out of you. The chest tubes feel like your organs are being pulled out. First waking up and feeling the tube down your throat seems unbearable and like a fish out of water. The IV in your neck wasn’t great either. I have almost no good memories from the ICU except seeing my family, but I only remember minutes from that day or two.
Actually, for the most part this video is pretty spot on in showing what happens after the surgery. I have had OHS to have my Aortic valve replaced twice. Once in 2016 and then a second time in 2018. The first time it never sealed properly against the Aortic wall so they had to redo it two years later. But unlike the first time where I was on the table for just four hours the second time they had me on the table for eight hours due to also doing an Aortic graft to replace part of my Aorta itself. After the first surgery I was up and walking around the hallways within two days on my own and discharged from the hospital six days after the surgery with little problem in being able to walk around. The second surgery went a lot tougher though since I was under anesthesia for so long. In fact there was some complications with it and I actually went into a coma for nine days. When I finally came out of it and was discharged from the hospital 6 days after waking I was so weak I couldn't walk ten steps without having to stop and rest. That second one took me almost three weeks before I was able to pretty much get up and walk around on my own. Both surgeries were done by the same Cardiac surgeon and when I finally made it in to see him again after the second one I told him I hope he did it right this time because he wasn't getting a third crack at me. I would just go hide in the woods and let nature take its course if it comes to needing a third Op. But it seems to be doing its job and I am back to living my life as I used to do before the surgeries by playing as much golf, walking for exercise and pretty much anything else I want to do physical wise. Heck I can even mow my own yard with a push mower. lol Now I will say this.......used to be Open Heart Surgery was very risky and a dangerous procedure years ago. But they have been done so many times now that there is nothing new under the sun for such surgeons. And 90% of them go off without a hitch. If you are in decent health otherwise you should have no problem making it through such a surgery nowadays.
I had my second open heart surgery in 2010 when I had my aortic valve replaced. I have to say, even though recovery was tough and painful, I was treated so well by hospital staff. The only complaint I have is that the nurses started my new medication for heart rhythm before eating breakfast (although my label says to take with food) and it made me too sick to eat...
Caleb Berkheimer right after waking up you will still have a catheter (I did) but usually the following day it will come out. They encourage walking, which includes to the bathroom! Good luck!
Caleb Berkheimer well judging by your name, you're a male, so I can't speak for how you'll feel about it anatomically. As a female, it was a bit uncomfortable but not bad. As a male you may not enjoy it so much lol. They don't put it in until you're sedated, so you won't feel that part! The way it works is they started you for surgery and then put it in. The tube goes up your urethra in the penis and into the bladder. This way you won't be incontinent. Then when it comes out the next day usually they have you take a deep breath and they pull it out. As a woman there was a little pressure but not bad. Like I said, I can't speak for a man. Good luck!
@Cari Lynn How painful was it? I’m having that surgery next month. What painkillers and how much did they give you? The pain is what I’m worrying about the most.
When I had open heart surgery I thought it would be crazy painful after. But the only parts that were bad was the amount of drugs I was given and puking.
Laughing, coughing and farting hurt like hell. Because they compress your lungs during bypass surgery they get fluid in them, which you have to cough up after. I also farted once when back on the ward, it sounded like someone sat on a duck, which made a nurse laugh, and I got the giggles, which hurt like hell.
I have a large tumor or clot attached to my right tricuspid valve. They are talking about surgery but I think I will not have it. I have a lot of other health issues .
Mom had bypass surgery June 28, 2021. It'll be 2 week for her in ICU this coming Monday. Progress is slow. She's going through so much. I just think maybe we made the wrong choice. Maybe she should have gotten the stint.
@@MrNGTfan123 HEY thanks for asking. She's still not walking but everything is strong, mind, spirit, appetite, humor, will. She had a doctor's appointment a few weeks ago, nearly all her levels are in line. We need to work on potassium, and creatinine, and her blood oxygen levels. Her oxygen should increase with exercise. Caediac Doc said her heart function increased 30%. She's much more independent. She transfers herself from the bed to the wheel chair to the couch. She prepares food and drinks in the kitchen, she folds and puts away laundry, she washes and dresses herself. She can do anything she did before. She can take maybe three of four steps with a walker. My brothers and I got her that bike machine, she can do from a sitting position, and some weights. We work with her on building muscle in conjunction with what the in home therapist does. I think once she goes to outpatient therapy she will advance much much faster.
@@MrNGTfan123 Yeah it is tough. I'm working full time and caring for her. I am lucky that she is not in a vegetative state and her mind is strong. How long since your Dad's surgery?
@@leeluv96 a week it’s still fresh, I came onto RUclips to try and understand how to help him recover. I wish you and your family all the best! Keep your head up
I had a triple bypass. Spent 24 hrs in ICU. I woke up in my room and had no IV's. A nurse friend came to visit and was surprised that I had no Iv's. I couldn't even get up to get myself water.
30 days post op.. rehab is great. get my coffee at speedway, young mother there buying soda way overweight she spent $ 160. on two cartons of cigarettes.. year 2024 and people still not learning how to cherish their bodies...perfect candidate for heart disease,
Wow im 38 have a twin sister we both at birth had heart problems i and my twin had a leak in the aorta valve a leak underneath my twin sister had hers corrected at age 6!mine the male was only fixed until later life at age 11 i went to fix my leak in the aorta valve by an English man called gladstone, never will at that age forget his name.. Im a boy of a twin sister my mum and dad who went through this as there son who are now dead i have to go again to fix it that willl be 3 ops
not the heart, I have what feels like a loose wire. leg, breathing, chest hurts when I cough, had 4 tubes coming out my stomach get theses sharp like sting pains for a few seconds different parts of the body but doing good on my walking
My husband had a heart transplant. He used a ventricular pump for a year until he received a heart. What they don’t tell you about heart transplants is that you will have to take about 30 pills a day and inject yourself with insulin, and as a result, you’ll die from “Renal Failure.” My husband existed for about 8 years and died at age 64 with the stamina of a 98-year-old man. His father lived an extra year without going to any doctor. Heart transplants are a money-making business just like sex transplants and liposuction, etc. My husband’s insurance covered over a million dollars in treatments. Most appalling is the treatment he received in the hospital that listed him as terminal. His shoulder bled from needle catheters for 3 days because his platelets weren’t clotting and had nose bleeds for hours and was left to bleed. When transferred to the ICU, he was placed on a 24-hour dialysis machine that shut off within the first five minutes for about eight times consecutively, but they kept scheduling the failing treatments, and he had to have several blood transfusions. Despite this, the doctors reported that his statistical numbers had improved. He was continuously tested, medicated, pronged as teams of doctors and personnel made their morning rounds to claim interest to his insurance money. My husband was cognitive; yet, his body was washed and rubbed down like a stable horse by nurses who just saw him as a job like his doctors. He never saw his cardiologist who was in the doctor’s lounge, three doors down although he asked for him daily. He was not in respiratory distress and was breathing on his own and his lungs were clear, but the doctors installed a ventilator hose down his throat whose diameter was as large as a baseball. Later, I researched and discovered that an endotracheal tube taped to the corner of the mouth was supposed to be used and only the ventilator hose was used for brain damaged patients. I was so distressed by the inhumane treatment of my husband that I went to a lawyer. “The law is that hospitals can not be sued for patient care if the patient is listed as terminal.” When a person is listed as terminal, he/she should be treated with dignity and comfort; yet, many hospital professionals just see them as money cows and subhuman objects that become statistics whether they are alive or dead. The system is beyond change because money is the controlling factor that makes a lot of people act inhuman. You probably will not believe me and think of me as angry or irate. The bottom line is in this society, all doctor are dedicated healing gods, and the medical professionals are beyond approach. . . Lately, I have been reading about Dr. Deepak Chopra, an alternative medicine advocate.
Victoria Matthews , I had 2 heart valves replaced because of regurgitation. I was dealing with Afib before surgery. I had several complications after. I still have Afib. My surgery cost $400K. I am still in Afib. My quality of life has diminished greatly! I have to nap almost daily. To say I am disappointed is an understatement. Bless you! I am praying for you.
agree, some medical treatments are just money making and it is a crime against humanity! conventional cancer treatments like chemo and radiation is another one, as well as vaccines which causes other diseases that had exploded from the 1990s like allergies, autism, etc. but my life had been saved two times because of surgery and i'm forever grateful for the great doctors and nurses who helped. the medical industry has its bad apples and we the public needs to trust but verify everything nowadays. support patient advocate groups (or start one) because they (not the government) are the checks and balances that help clean up this industry!
Going under the knife for the docs to fix my hole in my heart. I also have a form of hemophilia and I'm crazily worried I'm going to die. I'm in the fence about getting it because of this and I don't want the surgery. My doctor said I can live to 50 before heart failure and my other said in 10-15 years complications would start. I'm fine with that. I'm 26 so that'll give me a good 24 years. I just feel like I'm being forced to have the surgery because I'm young and apparently need the surgery. My first doctor that said I have 10-15 years, said I could have medications instead of the surgery but it wouldn't fix the hole. I'd do anything to get around having this type of surgery and I mean anything. This video doesn't calm my nerves or anything and all the comments just make me more worried because of how everyone is describing things.
i had an almost amazing experience but anyhow i fell asleep before the calming medicine and woke up the next day is u want to follow my journey go to my youtube channel audit was 2 months ago
Just because you have a family history of heart disease does not necessarily mean you will have heart disease. My mother has a total of five stents in her heart after having two heart attacks. However, I had an angiogram before having open heart surgery to fix the mitral valve in my heart that wasn’t working, and the procedure revealed I have NO heart disease at the age of 52, which was great news.
My father had quadruple bypass April 27 2022 it’s now May 13th he’s home walking without his walker much more now bathing himself eating good less meds after surgery he does get tired a lot since it’s only been about 2 1/2 weeks since surgery but I pray he continues to get better his balance is off just a little but his breathing is so much more better
I have a heart problem , I am from Kenya 🇰🇪 if any one out there sponsor my medication I would be very grateful and God will bless you abundantly, I live under feer of death.. please help me.
If they removed veins from leg prepare for nasty pain. But your leg can save your life so take some painkillers. I felt great after cabgx4 in 2017. Still do in 2023! Life's good. Retired after 36.5 yrs at last employer. Had great Aetna insurance. Now Medicare. ❤
And what was God's healing power on his people because as the Doctors,Surgeons,and Nurses go on with the surgery they put God at the right hand for intervention
You should just skip surgery, have faith in your god to heal you, it has worked out so well for the history of man kind. You know he always heals his people, that's why praying to your God has a 100% survival rate. Lmao

My husband had a heart transplant. He used a ventricular pump for a year until he received a heart. What they don’t tell you about heart transplants is that you will have to take about 30 pills a day and inject yourself with insulin, and as a result, you’ll die from “Renal Failure.” My husband existed for about 8 years and died at age 64 with the stamina of a 98-year-old man. His father lived an extra year without going to any doctor. Heart transplants are a money-making business just like sex transplants and liposuction, etc. My husband’s insurance covered over a million dollars in treatments. Most appalling is the treatment he received in the hospital that listed him as terminal. His shoulder bled from needle catheters for 3 days because his platelets weren’t clotting and had nose bleeds for hours and was left to bleed. When transferred to the ICU, he was placed on a 24-hour dialysis machine that shut off within the first five minutes for about eight times consecutively, but they kept scheduling the failing treatments, and he had to have several blood transfusions. Despite this, the doctors reported that his statistical numbers had improved. He was continuously tested, medicated, pronged as teams of doctors and personnel made their morning rounds to claim interest to his insurance money. My husband was cognitive; yet, his body was washed and rubbed down like a stable horse by nurses who just saw him as a job like his doctors. He never saw his cardiologist who was in the doctor’s lounge, three doors down although he asked for him daily. He was not in respiratory distress and was breathing on his own and his lungs were clear, but the doctors installed a ventilator hose down his throat whose diameter was as large as a baseball. Later, I researched and discovered that an endotracheal tube taped to the corner of the mouth was supposed to be used and only the ventilator hose was used for brain damaged patients. I was so distressed by the inhumane treatment of my husband that I went to a lawyer. “The law is that hospitals can not be sued for patient care if the patient is listed as terminal.” When a person is listed as terminal, he/she should be treated with dignity and comfort; yet, many hospital professionals just see them as money cows and subhuman objects that become statistics whether they are alive or dead. The system is beyond change because money is the controlling factor that makes a lot of people act inhuman. You probably will not believe me and think of me as angry or irate. The bottom line is in this society, all doctor are dedicated healing gods, and the medical professionals are beyond approach. . . Lately, I have been reading about Dr. Deepak Chopra, an alternative medicine advocate.
Victoria Matthews , I had 2 heart valves replaced because of regurgitation. I was dealing with Afib before surgery. I had several complications after. I still have Afib. My surgery cost $400K. I am still in Afib. My quality of life has diminished greatly! I have to nap almost daily. To say I am disappointed is an understatement. Bless you! I am praying for you.
I Believe all you have Said I have Seen this sort of behaviour From the medical Personnel my self
Thank you so much for information.
Your 100% right!!! Its sad and uncalled for!! Sorry you went through such torture, too bad you could not have sued the bastards.😡☹
agree, some medical treatments are just money making and it is a crime against humanity! conventional cancer treatments like chemo and radiation is another one, as well as vaccines which causes other diseases that had exploded from the 1990s like allergies, autism, etc.
but my life had been saved two times because of surgery and i'm forever grateful for the great doctors and nurses who helped. the medical industry has its bad apples and we the public needs to trust but verify everything nowadays. support patient advocate groups (or start one) because they (not the government) are the checks and balances that help clean up this industry!
going on 2 years still hurts when i cough
No shit?
@@ZbagdoesMC no shit what
Going under the knife for the docs to fix my hole in my heart. I also have a form of hemophilia and I'm crazily worried I'm going to die. I'm in the fence about getting it because of this and I don't want the surgery. My doctor said I can live to 50 before heart failure and my other said in 10-15 years complications would start. I'm fine with that. I'm 26 so that'll give me a good 24 years.
I just feel like I'm being forced to have the surgery because I'm young and apparently need the surgery.
My first doctor that said I have 10-15 years, said I could have medications instead of the surgery but it wouldn't fix the hole. I'd do anything to get around having this type of surgery and I mean anything.
This video doesn't calm my nerves or anything and all the comments just make me more worried because of how everyone is describing things.
I just had a CABG, 4 vessels. 3-4 days post op it hurts. After that......get to work. Get your ass moving.
You're ok now? By pass operations look terrifying to me.

I'm having heart surgery next week, I'm 20 years old getting a mechanical valve at northwestern. Onyx valve.
My dad had a quadruple bypass surgery back in 2012 and heart disease runs in my family my grandpa passed in 2017 from heart disease
Which Heart Disease?
@@hassanahmed2441 wym
Just because you have a family history of heart disease does not necessarily mean you will have heart disease. My mother has a total of five stents in her heart after having two heart attacks. However, I had an angiogram before having open heart surgery to fix the mitral valve in my heart that wasn’t working, and the procedure revealed I have NO heart disease at the age of 52, which was great news.

My father had quadruple bypass April 27 2022 it’s now May 13th he’s home walking without his walker much more now bathing himself eating good less meds after surgery he does get tired a lot since it’s only been about 2 1/2 weeks since surgery but I pray he continues to get better his balance is off just a little but his breathing is so much more better

If they removed veins from leg prepare for nasty pain. But your leg can save your life so take some painkillers. I felt great after cabgx4 in 2017. Still do in 2023! Life's good. Retired after 36.5 yrs at last employer. Had great Aetna insurance. Now Medicare. ❤
Okay
I had it 2 times and im 33
David Tangen sorry to hear that
Same here and I’m 26 when I was 3 and on Valentine’s Day this year

And what was God's healing power on his people because as the Doctors,Surgeons,and Nurses go on with the surgery they put God at the right hand for intervention
Jesus is your healer
He is Doctors all above doctors
You should just skip surgery, have faith in your god to heal you, it has worked out so well for the history of man kind. You know he always heals his people, that's why praying to your God has a 100% survival rate. Lmao
@Marie Sztenderowicz Seriously. These people are mentally challenged.
A blatant ad.
On the authority of Imam al-Rida, peace be upon him:
Will and volition are among the attributes of actions, so whoever claims that God Almighty has always willed and willed is not a monotheist.

You’re going to be very disappointed in that choice.

@@rushgush so how are you and what was your Diagnosis and what did you decide to have done
No thanks I'll die first
It is not that bad ... I am one year after a 4x bypass ... I am as good or better than when I was admitted ... definitely worth it !!!
I think am leading to heart problems so I think heart surgery is the best choice trust me you’ll be amazed or ur choice
repent and accept Jesus Christ As your lord and saviour and receive salvation
