Its all got real

[Stevie335]

Hi guys update number 1000 lol, chest pains and hospital visit yesterday and now they have said they will transfer me to my surgery hospital straight away as an inpatient, no more waiting and I should have a new set of pipes in the next 48 hours. Scared to death tbh but also looking forward to getting better 😊

[Tos92]

This is brilliant news! I really hope you feel a difference after the op. Will wait on an update from you when you’re feeling up to it. All the very best luck.

Thank you im hoping so too, just going through the fear stage tonight and being here with strangers doesnt help but ill get there.

[Tos92 in reply to Stevie335]

It’s normal to be a bit scared or anxious before any type of procedure or surgery. It sounds like the hospital know what they are doing so you are in good hands.

I hope you are able to get some rest before the surgery tomorrow.

Hello

You are going to be fine honestly normal to feel scared but if I did it I know you will

Keep focused on those positive thoughts of feeling better once you have recovered

When you can let us know how you are as we will be thinking about you x

[Stevie335 in reply to BeKind28-]

Thank you im super anxious tonight, visiting hours are over, docs have all gone home its just nurses here doing admin, they tell me just to relax and get some sleep bless em. Youve been here so I bet you can guess the fears im having😬😬😬

[BeKind28- in reply to Stevie335]

Hello

I suffer really bad with anxiety always did and still do before my triple Bypass so yes I know how you are feeling but in the end I just thought it has to be done and they know what they are doing and they really do to them this is just what they do everyday and you are young and it is straightforward it is very positive

Maybe why the Nurses are telling you to relax even though not easy but they deal with this everyday

The night before they gave me something to help calm me down I wonder if you find you can't relax if you ask a Nurse if they could give you anything ?

This time next week you could even be home and you will look back on this post and think goodness there I was worrying here I am recovering

You will be posting soon and it will all be done and if I may can I say

I told you so

You are in safe hands and they will work their magic

Just listen to what the Nurses are getting up to I used to some of the conversations they would be having I think they would forget patients could hear x

[Stevie335]

Thank you ❤ you really are an amazing person

Hi Stevie,

Its great to hear you are being sorted. I'm sure you will feel much better after the op, once the initial recocery is over. You will make progress bit by bit. Appreciate every achievement, no matter how small. Keep positive and look forward to having a normal life again.

With my best wishes,

Gerald

Good luck ❤️

All the best Stevie you are in our thoughts. You've got this x

[Coper10]

I'm so glad you are getting your operation but know that the time immediately beforehand can be the most challenging. I well remember being scared stiff - that is totally normal. I had a sedative the night before and the morning of the op, just to help relax a bit. You will be in good hands and soon you will be able to start your recovery. Take it easy, a day at a time 🤗

[MarmiteB]

Hey Stevie! My offer still stands - I’d be happy to have a chat on the phone today before your op if you’d like! Just message me xx

It’s totally normal to be nervous, I think it would be weird if you weren’t!! Xx

[Jcdg]

Your in the best place , totally understand how your feeling my very best wishes to you

[Rogo23]

Good luck with the rebuild, I was definitely suffering from a mysterious need to run for the loo while I was waiting.For us it's huge a dark and mysterious adventure looming during the wait it seems like time both slows right down and speeds up.

But for the surgery team it's Tuesday, they do it all the time and before they are even allowed in the OR they are well trained, and then they are trained a lot more, before they are allowed to even touch you let alone hold something sharp. The teams are at the top of the game and you will come round and think what was I worried about.

Then you will cough and remember 😂, you are going to be fine on the day of my surgery the worst thing was nil by mouth after 7.30. Come 10.00 I would have committed murder for a coffee.

Good luck.

[Jem64]

You are young and strong...you will be fine...Hang in there...😍

[Jules2021]

All the best. Jules x

Good luck mate 🙂

[Digger0]

Brilliant news about the op! All the very best!

[CalvinHb]

2 month post op. I feel 20 years younger!

The difference is incredible, and the who procedure and recovery is much less difficult than I expected.

Just listen to your body, rest and sleep when you are tired, and don't do any lifting.

You'll never look back once you're on the road to recovery!

[Heartfairy]

You’re in safe hands Stevie335 - be brave, you’ll get through this - we are all sending you positive vibes ❤️🧚🏼‍♀️

[Echo24uk]

All the best for your surgery !!

I’m not far behind you just had an a second angiogram and found that the old LAD has a long narrow section with the main branch off it diseased at the joint !

Tubes pulled out and now await the call for bypass or complex stenting decision !

Maybe not a bad thing you’ve gone back in and getting rushed through ! Sure all will be fine and I’ll be pestering you for advice once your out!!! 😂

good luck stevie

Hi everyone thank you for all the advice and support. More news. Because of my symptoms the hospital did a head ct scan. They have found mutliple cystic lesions in the thalmatic region of the brain that need further investigation. Sent home because they need to investigate further as it could affect the operation 😪 This would at least explain the dizziness and near passing out and doc is confident that my heart will hold out whilst waiting for further investigations to be carried out. There very blase at the hospital, next step is full mri with contrast to see the extent of the lesions and the next steps moving forward, told it could be 4 to 6 weeks to get the scan through. Oh the joys

[BeKind28- in reply to Stevie335]

Hello

Just seen this and sorry there is a little set back but at least they have spotted this and can investigate it and you will soon be back in that bed waiting for your op

Keep us updated x

[Yumz199725 in reply to Stevie335]

[Shazzy46]

Good luck. I'm waiting for transfer too.
