Alright, I have a question about rehab. How come all the "older" folks get it, but the young'uns don't? Or did other young'uns get rehab and I'm just out of the loop? I've had 7 heart surgeries and NEVER been put into cardiac rehab. I would really like to be, though. I've never had much stamina, and I fear it's getting worse after this last surgery. I wasn't told a certain amount of walking to do, just to make sure to walk (which if you add up all the trips from my classroom to the office, might be enough?). I had mentioned to my cardiologist awhile back about cardiac rehab, but neither of us brought it up again. I'd really like to get "in shape" so to speak. Was rehab automatic for all of you, or did you have to ask for it? And how was insurance about paying for it? It's been 3 and 1/2 months since my surgery, would they still consider me?
Thanks,
Thanks,
