My bypass(quad) has been 5 and half yrs ago and stents since.My valve also regurgitates. i find every morning since i wake up with anxiety and have mentioned it to doc...no help there. it has been spontanious upon waking.Almost every day. It is true the trauma of the bypass is with me but since covid my area there are few real counselourcounselor's mostly life coaches.Out of those you zoom them. grateful for any suggestions it is scary. regular checkups with cardio. just dont know how to be at ease. a year after bypass 2 stents. anyone else have this anxiety?

Since I had 3 stents over 3 years ago I have felt anxiety most mornings and am convinced it’s my medication but can’t get Doctors to agree so am left just having to cope with it 🥴

Hi I have spent 9 months in fear as my partner had a heart attack. I have listened to Eckhart Tolle on pod casts and he teaches how to stay in the present moment surrender and accept. My partner doesn't want to do counselling but I do. Reaching out to this forum is a first step. I think a life coach would be very helpful if you can afford it. Self care is so important. Look after yourself. Be kind to yourself. 🙏🙏🌹
