He is here finally.  Surgery went fine but recovery was hell.  My bp jumped to 239 and then I flat lined so got intubated (not a pleasant experience).  Woke up in ICU with a nurse applying pressure to my groin and telling me to relax.  Turns out the high pressure caused my incision to bleed.  2 ct scans and 12 hrs later finally got the tubes out.  Was transferred to a cardiac floor for monitering and thought that maybe could go home Sat.  Hadn't been there 15 min when here comes the nurse with her machinery as seems as though I was in atrial fibrillation.  After several days of going in and out of afib, think they finally gave up on getting it to stop.  Had a short bout of pneumonia, and a round of urinary tract infection but finally was released to come home on Thur eve.

Hey, welcome back! It's better to recover at home - no one eases really in a hospital.

And don't trust the doctors. There's most times a doctor present when someone dies - that's a coincidence one should keep in mind. I have heard several times from people once in the hospital suffered different things throughout their stay.

regards
