After a Bypass OP

[JamesP]

Having had chronic AF since 2008 and a single bypass and aortic valve replacement in August 2015 my physical recovery has been very good. Has anybody had the experience of the breakdown of a meaningful relationship over such a critical period? What was the effect on your AF, your other physical indicators and mental well being? How did you go about dealing with it?

You raise a very important issue.This has not happened to me over AF but it has nearly happened to me over another heath issue.In my case it is not 'the lack of a good man' but the difficulty of how ones life changes in relation to the health issue and the ability of the 'other' to cope with it.
