On October 12, I had a mitral valve repair.

It was minimally invasive and no problems were expected.

Unfortunately, the anesthetic impacted my prostate and it shut the urinary tube.  A catheterization solved that problem.

Apparently, the drugs prescribed to allow my recovery sent my bp and pulse into highs and lows.  Changing them around — eliminate some, change others — seemed to get me back level.

Recovery took longer than I expected and wasn’t as easy as I anticipated.

But, I think I’m back to where I was before I was “fixed”.
