About Me (In My Own Words)
My surgery was almost 2 years ago. I had a very rough time afterwards with complications but am doing well now. I was a 55 year old, fit woman that exercised and ate well before the surgery. I never expected to have such a bad post operative experience. I think the worst part for me is the lingering health problems I've experienced since the procedures. I've seen several doctors since that time to try and help me. I have ocular migraines that started immediately after the heart surgery and still continue. Not as frequently as they were, put I still have them. That was something I never had before. I also have stomach issues that started afterwards also. I've explained it as pressure in my upper stomach and just overall digestive problems. I'm wondering if I'm the only one that feels like they fixed my heart problems but ruined my overall health?
