That’s called the Ross procedure (the pig parts) followed by a CABG - You really went the whole hog! Glad it went well 
It’s a process called Cardioversion. When done (as when using a defibrillator) the shock actually stops the heart, and forces it to “reboot” in a normal rhythm. It can sometimes take a few goes, but usually works without issue

Wow, seeing things like this really puts things into perspective. Glad to see your fighting back and everything worked successfully.

Holy crap, that's a bit of motivation for me to get myself sorted out! So glad you're all good and they fixed you up. Modern medicine is madness! Recover well and stay healthy Rots!

Blimey, you sure know how to help a guy recuperate!
Good luck Rotty, nowt like a bit of key hole surgery
As a surgeon customer once said to me after gasping at the size of his bill, and me telling him, "You lot can talk about the size of bills". He told me sternly "But WE repair the engine without turning it off"One always hopes they haven't been on a bender or had a barney with the wife the night before they put their gloves on. Yours seem to have done a grand job, although his stitching is hardly to the standard of the better cosmetic surgeon French suturers. He could always get a part time job in retirement stitching mail bags... Can we call you Freankenstein now?
Take care, ignore LOAM....
The intention is to stop it, it then naturally restarts with a good rhythm
What a mad coincidence
Have read of depression etc being an effect after for some, I generally always have a positive outlook so hopefully it won't hit me lime that

Glad your recovering bud as a student nurse i worked in the vascular ward and seen some surgery and the recovery of patients. As a larger lad i switched to eating healthy until I finished that placement before resuming the fryup
Crazy I wonder how they worked that out.

Bloody hell Rotty, that's some serious stuff you had going on. Hope you make a full and speedy recovery.
@Rotty Congrats on the surgery - Interested in how you start to feel after recovery from the surgery - Like if you notice any difference to your general health / feeling of health with the problems fixed. I guess all your life you would not have known any different - Keep us updated!
