Jay Gardner Hi Deena, thank you so much for your note. The surgery went really well with a new AV and removal of the tumor which proved benign. Yeah!! I feel so grateful. A couple of issues in CVICU , but my team was all over it. AFib was one of them which was intense. Was in step down on day POD2 and sent home POD4. Pain was ok until yesterday when, interestingly enough, it was my back that brought me to tears. PA phoned in some Flexeril and I'm doing much better today. Several have said to embrace patience for which I'm also grateful. I see it will take time, but I also see progress everyday.

Deena Z Great news, Jay, all around. The back aches are crazy, last thing I would have thought of with OHS. Sounds like you have turned the curve and the pain is subsiding. Cardiac rehab really helps to gain your strength and confidence to push yourself, even if you only want to go to through part of the program. It's like having a personal trainer.
