Had my heart surgery a couple of weeks ago. It went well. It's pretty crazy what they can do. I had a hole in my heart (from birth) which aided in my stroke. They went up through my groin and patched it. Made a 1/4" incision down at my groin and didn't even need to stitch it. I was in and out the same day in a couple of hours. I had them knock me out, they were just going to twilight me, but my blood pressure goes crazy with things like that. Anyway, I have to take it easy for a couple days but I'm back at it now. The chemo is much worse than that was. At least it's one lest thing out of the way.

Good to hear Finster.

I'm surprised you opted to be knocked out and intubated. I have an ablation scheduled for my artrial flutter. I don't like being intubated and luckily this procedure doesn't require it.


Eh...wot?

My son had the same thing done as you.

He also had ulcerative colitis too..

And a blot clot went through that hole in his heart (from birth)

And caused a stroke at 26 years old.

Glad they got you patched up !!

Great to hear Finster. I am still waiting for my heart surgery. From what you said I feel better as they are going through my groin too.


I got myself a seniors' GPS.
Not only does it tell me how to get to my destination,
it tells me why I wanted to go there.
