Hello - Jack!
Your news of overall improvement are wonderful to hear! Wishing the \"sight\" issue was on the upswing, too, but it sounds like part is due to that catarac. Guess age hinders us when we are trying to heal! :)
Seems that you have others out there with similar issues; wish someone would listen to all of you! Hoping that \"study\" you heard about is well on it\'s way to finding a solution!
Keep taking good care! Appreciate the updates!

Hi John..
It was great to see your post and know you are improving!
My memory issues, I thought, were going in the right direction....but now...not so much. it concerns me, however, the doc says...\"give it more time\".
As far as the vision issues... my cardiologist sent me to a neurologist who tells me \"it makes no sense\" that I would have vision problems from having AVR. When I told him of the HVJ patients who also complain of some of the same issues...he said \"I don\'t know what those people are feeding you, but that makes NO SENSE\".....so as far as that doc goes.... I am done!! My eye doc said the same thing to me....very frustrating when I know of so many others who also have issues.....but....I will give it more time to see if things improve (the sight in my right eye has changed considerably), I have had eye exams, EEG, MRI, & CT scan of the brain, which are all normal, of course.....sooooo....the research continues.
I am just thankful to be where I am today....able to breathe normal when I walk! :)
Take Care..once again...it was good to hear from you and know you are well!! :)

John, I hope the memory issues will improve. I had serious issues the first few weeks, but it has improved as I get further from surgery. I have the vision issues as well and will go back to doc in a few more weeks. But like you, I am so grateful that overall I feel a vitality I had not realized was going away prior to surgery. One thing I have found helpful with the memory issue is working on my vocabulary memory by doing crossword puzzles. Just a thought. Hang in there! Sherry Bradford. AVR 10/23/2012

Thanks for the update! So good to know that 2013 is ringing in with improvement to 2012! Happy New Year by the way!
Your health improvements are so exciting; now comes the fun of joining the \"Silver Sneakers\" program! This should \"add\" to your overall health improvements!
Howard and I both hope that the \"eye sight\" issues will turn around soon. Just keep doing all you can do to take care of yourself!
Wishing you the very best - in everything!

Hi Jack,
Glad to see your latest update. Great news that.
I hope you can stop by for a visit-would enjoy seeing you. Crappy about your job, but you know IER. No wiggle room in their rules.
Let me know if you can stand some company, and I\'ll make plans to stop over for a visit.
Keep up your program. Looks like they finally found one that works for you.
Godspeed

Your update is very \"promising\"! So happy for you and all of the improvements that have been made - especially \"preop\" improvements!!! January and the Silver Sneakers program sounds like an opportunity to work off those \"obtained five pounds\". Moving more will help! I understand the comment about \"depression being work related\"; I think that can be very true! The biggest thing will be to \"just keep moving\" even if it\'s going to HomeDepot and walking around the store - up and down every eisle!
We\'re certainly rooting for you and wish you the very best!

Read your latest update - sounds like things are improving! Getting better and better every day! Continue doing all you can do and the rest WILL work itself out! You are missed at I.E.R.; hoping that even if the job you had was filled due to length of time, that they will find another place for you!
Howard and I were there on 9/28/12 - sure wish you had been there, too. You were very good at your job!
Hang in there, My friend!

Hi there! Glad to hear an update from you. I think you will find that you enjoy cardiac rehab and that it will help you feel better. I know I really enjoyed it and being monitored in a \"safe\" way while exercising. Hang in there, it takes time for the heart and lungs to heal, but you will feel better! Good to hear you are walking!!
