Hi, everyone. So far my one week check up, has been good. Except for extreme water retention, which is now subsiding with increased lasix. I had my first sneeze (ouch!!!!).
But my questions is to try to get a feel for how much everyone else is being recommended to walk. They said 4 walks a day 1city block each, and by 10 days they want 2 blocks each which is approximately 1/4 mile. 1/2 mile by 18-20 days out and 1 mile by the 4th week out.
Just wondering if this is normal. I can handle 5 or 6 small walks it is the longs ones and then I have 4 steps into my house that seem so tiring.
THanks for any information you can give.
THanks, Lanna
