heart disease

my 20 yr old son had heart ablation surgery twice. he is very athletic. it has been 5 months and he still cannot get in shape like he knows his body can be and needs to be. Will it ever get back normal or does it just take time?

Thank you. That makes me feel better. My son had heart ablation surgery June, 2010 and then again Aug., 2010.  So it has been a full 5 months.  He is young and expects to be ful recovery by now.  So maybe another month he will be better. Thank you!!!
