Hi Everyone! Just a quick update, my dad had an ECHO last week, they then called him with the results, there is still the same little leak showing up in the ECHO like last time, they said nothing to worry about and his cardiologist will talk to him about it next week at his checkup. NOTIHNG TO WORRY ABOUT??? HA! We always worry. Then I deciced to look online about this, I guess in some cases people have little leaks after surgery. From what I believe in my Dads case, they can not HEAR the leak but it shows up on the ECHO. He is supposed to go for surgery Dec 3rd for this shoulder replacement, I am a wreck...what else is new, we always get nuts.
Bridging and Lovenox will be used, we just get scared with the Anthesia and his heart and valve. So thats whats new with me. Still NOT smoking...Lost about 15 pounds...We recently had a death in our family, actually TWO deaths, I lost two uncles. So thats been hard.
So, anyone else still have a little leak after surgery? I think some are near the sutures? I know my dad gets out of breath easy because he gained weight but we always think OH NO is that the valve?
TTYL ! JoJo
