(3,519 posts)204. So glad to hear you are improving!
Will you be able to qualify for cardiac rehab, do you think?
Unfortunately, my husband was outside the window of time. It isn't effective after ten years apparently. He probably should have had it after his valve replacement surgery in 2014, but no one mentioned it to him. He developed a-fib, finally had an an ablation, but then developed chs within a week of that and ended up in the hospital doing what you're doing.
It took awhile mentally to adjust to the new reality. He's done better lately in managing his salt intake and so forth. It's took a year of a roller coaster to get here.

I'd hope they're keeping a close eye on you in ICU, but are they checking your electrolytes?

Good advice cliffside but I was raised in the era that everyone got a thank you.

You know it's time to go to bed when you spend 20 minutes looking for your glasses

JHC. These Magats are burning it all down. Insanity. Hope you get out soon before hospital cuts the ICU.
