DNR, long...just guessing again since I've not had time to really look at much lately. Got home late yesterday & was exhausted. Slept about 10 hrs....they don't let you sleep in the hospital. What I had done was an electrophysiology & rf ablation....so they cauterized one spot on my heart & inserted a little device called a "watchman" in another place to make sure I don't get clots. They also inserted a monitoring device above my left breast that will print out something every night/early morning so they know how I'm doing. That thing hurts worse than anything else....and laying flat on my back for what ended up being about 7 hours (due to bleeding) nearly killed my back. They gave me Tylenol for my back pain...it doesn't work on me for pain, will only take down a fever. I can't have my normal ibuprofen since I'm on a blood thinner for 45 days, then never have to have that again for life! So hope ya'al behaved while I was in misery!

Glad that is over for you. Keep well, and don't do things that will put a lot of strain on your heart. Take life a lot easier!

Thank you guys...now I'm fighting a UTI...likely from lying on my back so long, full bladder that couldn't go any place.
But I'll make it. We cut my blood thinner dose by half...per Dr. when we called this morning, it's contributing to the UTI.

Mod, my heart rate went up to the mid 160's today & stayed there. My surgery Dr. had taken me off what my regular cardio had prescribed...so when we called, the Dr. on call said to go back on it. I did, it has come WAY down again. AND, it seems that our metal roof is interfering with my heart monitor...so the tech guy is sending us something to fix that...so that's not set up yet. If it's not one thing, it's at least 10 others. DH postponed neck surgery he had scheduled due to my mess. He was suppose to have it tomorrow but he won't be able to do anything by himself..not even get dressed for a couple of months. So we have to get me well before he can get it done now.

kadee, stay on the prescribed blood pressure medication to keep it down.
I have 2 pills to take several times daily and sometimes it still goes up for a short time. Being in an Assisted Living facility sure is nice, with the nurses and aides to help take care of me.
You and DH have it rough with your problems, and you both have my best wishes for your health and DH's neck surgery when you are in better condition. Hope you can get back to normal health rapidly. kadee. Bless you both!

I dodged a bullet this week. CMG blew through the earnings estimates. My mistake was not going long on them! Maybe next qtr I can short them!
