I'm free! I got handed off to my cardiologist last week, during my 6th post-op week. The visit went very well, and he has already started cutting back on my cocktail of meds. I'm still fighting fluid retention, but he feels the need to wring the last remaining bits of excess fluid out of me is not that urgent, and we should just be patient and go with my current diuretics which are doing the job very slowly.
The best news was that I was cleared to drive. I noticed, however, that driving REALLY tires me out. It has made the muscles in my back a tad sore, but the fatigue thing surprised me.
Did anyone else notice this once they started driving again?
