So, I have a couple of questions for a fic and I'm sure I could google or wiki it but...
- What kind of complications could arise from a heart transplant?
- What are the considerations? Do blood types have to match etc...?
- What's the recovery like?
Basically I'm going to be using "science-fiction" rather than science - alien technology, but there are some things that would still work the same...
This is for my second sweet charity fic so any help would be appreciated... I've completely changed what I'm writing... again... *bites fingernails*

Your heart reacts differently to stress now. The nerves that connected your original heart to your nervous system were cut during the transplant surgery and do not heal. That means your heart cannot respond immediately to exercise, sudden movement, or emotional stress like fear. It does react, but not nearly as fast. Now, it increases its rate in response to hormones in your blood.
