It is probably post operative biliary gastritis. Little medications will help you. Also increase the height of head end of your bed by 3 inches by placing two bricks or blocks. It will help a lot.

You have mitral stenosis. You may need a balloon dilatation of the valve, called pbmv, which is done via the leg for opening up the tight valve but it depends on your evaluation!
presently what meds you are taking are suffcient unless you get symptoms like breathlessness on exertion.
