OFCABG

[Montana77]

On Monday 10 10 2022 had the OFCABG. first day very rough as i felt like i could not breathe.

Got home Friday. but still weak and neck pain.

Incision itchy but does not hurt as much as a rotator cuff surgery 5 years ago. Hurt really bad.

Do not have strength yet and sleeping in recliner. appetite seems to be recovering but when i go to eat some of i get full really fast stop since it does not appeal to me anymore

drs and nurses we so great and wonderful. Attentive and cared very much about my hour by hour care.

they took blood many times.

taking tylenol plavix lipitor carvadalo daily and vitamins daily. hemoglobin count is 11 red cells and another count is down.

Amiodarone for four more days. I think that one is the worst i dont like it

showering daily .. wound healing had four tubes my before i left hospital

thank you all for your support
