Hi Stewart, so sorry to hear you have fibro and heart disease to cope with. As we all know having other conditions can aggravate fibro and vice versa so I wish you a speedy recovery from your surgery and relief from the horrible fibro flare it has brought on. In the meantime I think you will find some solace on this forum as there are lots of friendly folk who can offer support and advice and also the odd chuckle. So welcome to the forum my love, I look forward to seeing you around the place. x

(P.S. Just a little tip, you are likely to get more replies if you lock your post as a lot of members aren't keen on responding to unlocked ones. If you click on Edit (drop down box next to like box) and then at the bottom of your post you will see "Only followers in my community" so click on this and your post will be locked).

Thank you and it's been very helpful here.xxx

Hello hun- I hope you get some good post op physio, I know what you mean about surgery bringing on fibro pain- I needed a shoulder op recently for calcium crystal deposits, the Orthopod decided to try a new treatment less invasive and no anaesthetic needed, as he said the work surgically would bring on fibro big time, I need cocxy work too so he is speaking to spinal colleagues to try another avenue.. A triple heart by pass is a very major op. I hope you recover well, the ops are usually very effective.. If you dont get after care then jolly well insist on it and whilst you are there ask about physio/hydro to settle your fibro.. Good luck..
