Hi Bob, I had the same problems with sleep and still do some nights. Definitely stay with the pain meds and if you still can't get comfy I would have your doc give you something for sleep. I struggled for weeks then finally asked for something to help me sleep and it was wonderful to get some...

Thanks so much. I wondered about nerve pain and it sounds like that is what it could very well be. I still had some numbness in my chest up til a few weeks again and maybe I can feel more now. I see the doc tomorrow for my stress test so I will talk to him again about and make him give me...

Hi All! I haven't been online much since going back to work full time - life is pretty hectic. I am now 4 months out and most things are going well I think with a few minor problems I wanted to ask you all to see if anyone has experienced. One thing that just started to happen is when I...

Thanks all for the advice. My cardiologist hasn't said too much about it and I haven't really known to ask too much either. Just kinda going along with it since I am new to this. So glad I posted for advice, you all have helped me so much. I was thinking he wasn't aggressive enough, and...

Hi Dar, Glad to hear you doing well. I hope this continues to work well for you and the A-fib is taken care of soon. Prayers, Lori

Hi Danny, So glad to hear you are doing well. I'm jealous, I didn't get a shower for a week- and oh it was so very wonderful. Getting in and out of bed will get easier. The simplest things you take for granted will be so difficult during this time. Take your time and don't push yourself too...

Oh that is great news! Thanks Nadine for the update.

Hi Danny, You probably won't see this until after surgery. I will be thinking of you tomorrow and am continuing to pray for you. Stay strong and know that we all are thinking of you so you have alot of people praying for you. Looking forward to hearing about how you are doing. God bless...
