Returning To Work

[A New Beginning]

YEAH!!! I received the ok to return to work on September 10th. Eight weeks post surgery!!!!!

I also received the ok that I have a need for an INR machine for home. My insurance, if I can find a place that will order a machine for me, they will pay for it at 100%.

Things are looking up. I still have moments of depression, but I am trying to get through it.

I received notes on my surgery that I have to send into the insurance company and they were a lttle too detailed for me.

oh well, the incision is healing well, the sternum is still really sore when i sneeze or cough deep. rehab is going well too!!!

just a little update!!!

Congratulations on your improvement. I am 3 1/2 weeks out and hopefully will be at least released to drive soon. Hope your recovery continues and good luck at work.

Nervous, don't do too much too soon. A part time couple of weeks as a lead into full time work is a good idea.

Don't overdo it.
