Sorry I am so long in getting back to you. Yes I have Adam's book , but it is about the events of the surgery before and after. Adam went through a depression period after the surgery and found relief in cardiac rehab. Other than that I wish I had more to offer. I am in the pre-surgical area and so can not tell you any of my own experience. I will pray for your mother and for you that you find help and peace.
Arlene Phillips Thank you for responding Susan - greatly appreciated. Thank you also for your well wishes.

I'm sorry to hear about your mom. I too had the same surgery about a year and a half ago. I read journals from others relating their renewed vigor and energy and feel a bit envious, as I have none of that. I continue to struggle with pleural effusion and lack of energy. I tell myself it's all in the process, but it's frustrating. Ill reiterate what Susan said: What does her doctor say?
Sorry for the delay in getting back to you - I've been crazy at work! Thank you so much for responding and I'm sorry to hear about your complications as well. Most of the doctors have told my mother that they don't see anything wrong. The last doctor, who specializes in opthamology, told her it's occular migraines that are cause of what she's experiencing. Ok, with that being said, what are the treatments? She is not one to take meds - unless they are all natural. Have you read his book? Has anyone given any advise on treatments?
Again, thank you for taking the time to converse with me!
Thank you for taking the time to respond to my email. Most doctors say that they can't find anything wrong. She recently went to a doctor who specializes in opthamology and he told her she has occular migraines. Unfortunately, she won't take any meds that aren't natural.
Has anyone given you any advise on treatments and how to cure your complications? Have you read his book?
