ARNIE MUCH BETTER, BUT NOT GREAT YET, AFTER HEART SURGERY

In a video posted on Twitter, Schwarzene­gger provided an update on his health, adding that it’ll be some time before he feels ‘great’

-

Veteran actor Arnold Schwarzene­gger has thanked his fans for their support after undergoing a heart surgery and said he was feeling “much better” now.

The Terminator star posted a video on his official Twitter account and offered an update on his health, along with a tweet, “Thank you all for caring. We are moving forward!”

“I just want you to know that I’m feeling much better. I can’t say, even with my positive attitude, that I’m great, because I’m not great yet. Great is a totally different level. But I’m good. I feel good. I get good care, good doctors, good nurses. Everything is fantastic,” he said.

The video also shows the 70year-old actor sitting in front of a chess board. He said he was playing the game to help “freshen my mind and my memory a little bit”.

“And we move forward. So I will stay in touch with all of you. And thank you all for being such jewels,” he added.

Last week, Schwarzene­gger’s spokespers­on, Daniel Ketchell, had said that the actor “underwent a planned procedure to replace a pulmonic valve that was originally replaced due to a congenital heart defect in 1997.”

Ketchell further added that Schwarzene­gger’s pulmonic valve was “successful­ly replaced”, and that the star “is currently recovering from the surgery, and is in stable condition”. PTI

I can’t say, even with my positive attitude, that I’m great, because I’m not great yet. Great is a totally different level. But I feel good. I get good care, good doctors, good nurses. ARNOLD SCHWARZENE­GGER
