I'm going to be AFK for a bit

I’m going to be AFK for a bit as I get to have open heart bypass surgery tomorrow. Hopefully I’ll be able to post from the hospital with an update in a few days.

Cheers all.

My buddy had that done to a valve back in 2018. If it’s the same they’ll have you on a blood thinner and expect twinges in the area. No one mentioned that to my friend and we were back at the hospital one week and then one month after the proceedure. The doctors said it’s the mesh that is opening up the valve and the mesh is “settling” in.

Also, if it is the same proceedure … don’t be surprised if you feel flush with warmth. That’ the blood reaching places, well … once again in my friend’s case, where the blood veins and capilaries (sp) had athroypied(sp). Shit got closed down and withered but now it’s back open for business. I looked it up in the dictionary… honest that’s what it says. :wink:

Oh, and pt #3 … my buddy was warned not to lift more that … errr 2 lbs ? 5 lbs ? above his shoulder until the first week passed.

Take your meds , keep your blood thin to help everything work , ask questions if you feel any aches, pains , twinges.

Your message has been up for 3 hours so atm your prolly in your room feeling alone. You have a world wide array of strangers and friends thinking of you and praying for you. Stuff is microscopic now a days too so recovery from the procedure shouldn’t be months recovery as in the past.

Thinking of ya and praying for a smooth routine as routine can get … lets call it a “visit” … not operation.
