The former governor and action hero Arnold Schwarzenegger undergoes second heart surgery and he is feeling ‘fantastic’.
The 73-year-old Schwarzenegger posted a series of photos to Twitter. He said he now has a “new aortic valve to go along with my new pulmonary valve from my last surgery.” The other surgery occurred two years ago.
Thanks to the team at the Cleveland Clinic, I have a new aortic valve to go along with my new pulmonary valve from my last surgery. I feel fantastic and have already been walking the streets of Cleveland enjoying your amazing statues. Thank you to every doc and nurse on my team! pic.twitter.com/hmIbsEMHtA

“Thanks to the team at the Cleveland Clinic, I have a new aortic valve to go along with my new pulmonary valve from my last surgery,” wrote Schwarzenegger on Twitter.
“I feel fantastic and have already been walking the streets of Cleveland enjoying your amazing statues. Thank you to every doc and nurse on my team!” the Terminator star went on to say.
Fans from across the world wished the actor a speedy recovery and expressed concerns for his health.
The actor underwent a procedure to have his catheter valve replaced in 2018 as well. However, he developed complications during the surgery, and was forced to have an emergency heart surgery. While talking about his operation at a university, he had said, “Imagine, the day before I was training really hard, and now all of a sudden he’s telling me they were saving my life.”
