A quick update on Panache
Hello All,
So many of you have kindly expressed concern and good wishes towards me due to my recent heart problems I thought I would offer an update on my health.
The mechanical valve is doing great!
I have seen my cardiologist, heart surgeon, and infectious disease specialist and all three have been very pleased at my progress. I have been told that I need to take it easy and that Scottish Country Dance will need to wait a week or two (and then only strathspeys). I am going for walks several times a day and getting stronger.
Best of all...
...I have been given permission to have a real cup of coffee each morning! 
Thanks for all the good wishes
Cheers
Jamie  ith:

Make sure you take a lot of good probiotics to offset your floral loss from the antibiotics, Jamie. I have had a lot of those meds in recent months and even with intermittent probiotics I developed a case of thrush (no fun), which is now under treatment.
Glad to hear of your good, steady progress. Cheers

VERY GOOD ADVICE!
I learned this the hard way almost 13 years ago with my first valve replacement (OUCH!!!) Star had the probiotics ready for me as soon as I came home from the hospital
The good advice and good wishes are appreciated
Cheers
