Sorry @newarrior, i mean to say.. i recommend.. you do what ever you feel is right. Didnt mean to be so blunt..

@newarrior your issue of the heart valve is very small compared to your depression. You should seek professional help as soon as possible. Get in contact with your GP or psychologist.

*the quote is way too long to keep attaching.. just know it flows from your last post haha @Chuck C 🙂 sounds like a good experience. The ICU is pretty intense but that is more reassuring then anything. Yes sleeping in the recliner would be more comfortable but nothing beats the bed at home...

Well done @Chuck C, by the sounds of it you will be home in no time! Attended to by the best has got to be reassuring. You are in a shared ward now?

Keeping you in thoughts! Sounds like a rough ride you have been on the last few days. We are all cheering you on in your recovery. Rest up and just work on one day at a time.

Great outcome. Get that aFib under control and its like it cant go any smoother. Yes recliner chairs are the best to sleep in. That or like 10 pillows. Stay on those pain killers. Your surgeon did a good job by the sound (read*) of things 🙂

Hi @newarrior, This is a decision that you must be comfortable with making and living with what each journey looks like, the good and the bad. You already make it clear you want to stay in Thailand to live and that you are confident with the medical experts there. So i can see you leaning more...

Worried about constipation.. the anesthisa has already done that haha.. silly nurse if you ask me. You take what you need for pain.. Hoping your day gets better and you get some sleep if you can.

Yea, im stealing that image!! Too good..

Your Champion mate! One more for the zipper club 😂 Onwards and upwards from here 🚀🚀🚀

Well the "3 day moving average" is most based off the data that you enter into the spread sheet. So if you test 2 times per week it works off that. It you test every week or 1 per month.. it will go with your testing pattern.. what i gather is to be consistent. (It also has a "smoothing" if you...

Yes that would be best. Up to you and your testing regime and how stable your levels are. It is a guide and more than anything.

3 day moving average - help you see the trend line of your INR. So you can make more moderate changes to your warfarin based on your moving average instead of wild swings in each direction

Hope your surgery went well. 🙂👍

Hi, I created this a week or so ago. It needs to be reviewed by yourself if suitable. But you could use, add on to it and make your own if you like. Inr Chart - example

Thats alot of money but good that you had most of it covered. American health system is really advanced but costly. That being said heart surgery is never going to be cheap. Thanks for sharing, can you please keep us updated with your progress. Its very inspiring to me and im sure many others...

1 and half days is pretty good. Did you remember having the breathing tube in when you woke up? I remember when i woke up they chipped my tooth as they took it out. Ahha i dont miss those post surgery cough or sneezes thats for sure. Are you still on pain support medications? I remember i...
