About Me

3 and 1/2 weeks post-op and still kickin! Surgery went well, not too uncomfortable - nursing care in Cleveland outstanding. Home now, walking 3 x day, approx 1 mile each time. Having some troubles with Metoprolol - awful time sleeping, BP low, somewhat depressed, which is just not me 😳... anyhoo, glad surgery behind me. This site tremendously helpful and a great comfort to me - praying for everyone and their procedures.
