Ex-premier Silvio Berlusconi was discharged from Milan's San Raffaele Hospital on Tuesday after his June 14 heart surgery. "It was a very painful experience," the media magnate said.
"Now I'm a little better". Berlusconi had the op to replace a faulty aortic valve that had threatened his life. The three-time premier is keen to get back into the political arena at the helm of his centre-right Forza Italia party as soon as possible.
Berlusconi said Tuesday that he has two months of rehabilitation in store.
"I have two months of rehabilitation ahead of me and then he'll be able to be useful to the Italian people again," said Berlusconi, who had been in the San Raffaele hospital since June 7. .
