Happy Valversary and many many more!

I had a similar situation and it turned out to be pericarditis. You may want to call your doctor. Two weeks after being treated for that ,the pain got worse and did go down my left arm so I was admiited for 3 days, meds were changed and I am doing better. I would make a call and see what the...

Valerie, Prayers and wishes coming your way. Take it really easy, this would be the time to ask for help until your surgery. Listen to your body. Keep us posted...........

Thankfully I was less informed...I took the percocet, put the back of my bed up almost sitting up and gave myself over to la la land. Upon returning home I slept in my chaise for a very long time, as I got a double whammy, surgery recovery and pericarditis.. I graduated from the chaise to the...

I did it all by myself, it was hard, but I had no choice. If I had children it would be a different story. I was very lucky to be strong enough to handle it on my own. I did a lot of preparation in advance. I did go to a sub-acute care facility, but that was such a nightmare I signed myself out...

I am actually thinking of cardio re-hab, and my HMO recommeded it. Primarily because my recovery was hindered ( and still is) by pericarditis. It knocked me back to square one, and was not able to walk or breath without pain. However, if I were not in this hindered recovery situation, I would...

Hi Danny, Glad to see you are doing great. I finally can sleep in my bed after so many weeks jumping from sofa to chaise to bed. Phew...well at least that was excercise..lol. Keep up the good work! Linda

Welcome Nicholas, Others here are much more eloquent than I, and can answer your questions better than I. All I can add is that my aneurysm was 5.0, no symptoms (except a swallowing problem), I was not going to wait, I wanted it done the day I found out.The wait alone was going to kill...

Before my surgery I downloaded many books to my Kindle to read while recovering, I read "0". Did not have the head for it. I would instead watch Disney, Fantasy, (Enchanted),Comedy, and my Sci-Fi genre movies. I just did not care to read, nor watch anything sad.....don't know why. I am finally...

Great to hear you are doing so well! It gets better every day!

Wishing you a uneventful surgery and speedy recovery....Godspeed.
