After 35mm ASD heart surgery, it is possible to have a normal life with proper care and follow-up. However, there may be some complications that can arise post-surgery, such as infection, bleeding, arrhythmias, or fluid accumulation around the heart. It is important to follow your doctor's recommendations for medications and follow-up appointments to monitor your recovery progress. As for medications, you may be prescribed antibiotics to prevent infection, blood thinners to prevent clot formation, and pain medication as needed. Additionally, you may need to take medications to manage any underlying heart conditions. It is important to follow a healthy lifestyle, including regular exercise, a balanced diet, and avoiding smoking and excessive alcohol consumption to support your recovery and overall heart health.
