Mahalo From Mauiboy for Your Comments

[mauiboy]

Mahalo for your valuable comments to my post AVR surgery blues. Ross and nnqbwh (any name?) thanks for the welcome remarks. Larry and Dayton thanks for the military courtesy and also serving our country. Superbob thanks for the reference to blood sugar levels. Kona Boy Daren and Jeanie thanks for the measuring stick on fluid absorption, body temp and heart rate meds. I'm sure all of the conditions that I'm experiencing are temporary and everyone's body has a different time table to recovery. I'll keep on top of the fluid problem with echocardiograms and consults. I'll also reevaluate the meds for BP and check my blood sugar levels with the doctors on a monthly basis. Nice support group! P.S. When is a good time to drink my red wine again...I'm sure that doesn't interfere with my sternum healing?

Much Aloha,
Eric

Whenever you feel like it. Just make sure you drink in moderation.

Hope you continue to do well in your recovery Eric! Take it easy on yourself & don't get frustrated if you can't do all the things you want to do just yet. Time & healing.....all will come back eventually!

Stay well!

You need to take things slowly. Remember not to lift anything heavy. The first few months are very important.

Good to hear from you again, Eric. As for a glass of wine, my Cardio said that if one is not taking a medication that excludes alcohol then a glass of wine with dinner is perfectly ok. Take care.
