John Rubey I started walking every day after coming home from the hospital. Every day after I would walk further. This was the longest walk so far, but little by little.

Melissa Houser Wow - I too felt great walking after surgery (I did 12 labs around the stepdown unit 6 days after surgery and was walking 15-20 min 3 times daily when I got home) but am not sure I would have been able to do a 5K walk 3 weeks out. I saw your other post and noted you said the following day that you "felt it." I'm sure you needed a break from walking after pushing yourself a bit. Just don't overdo it - a reminder to everyone else here who may want to follow suit. Congrats!

Herb Greenberg Truly impressive/inspirational. I live in SD and have consulted w/CC but after reading your story and talking to some other local docs it appears I should add Dr. Madani to the consult list. He has a great rep. Best with the continued recovery.

John Rubey Dr Madani and the entire staff at UCSD are exceptional. I met with a Scripps La Jolla Surgeon, a USC Keck surgeon and then Dr. Madani. The second I met him I knew he was the one. Please reach out and contact His Office at +1 (858) 246-0611. Ask for Monica, as she schedules his consults. Good luck and let me know how I can help.

The "Cough" Pillow. One of the High Tech devices that the Hospital sent home with me to help recovery. Doesn't look like much, but man when you need it, it comes in handy.
