I'm in Utah also. Had my by-pass done by Dr. Simper at St. Marks. I am 4 days out. Came home after one night. Am 62 yeas old. I am sorry for your pain, trauma and frustration. What part do you have control over? I am wondering if you are a victim or volunteer? Don't let anyone else decide that for you. Learn to be positive. It is your only option. The more negativity you let in the less resistance you have to the pain. It is good they figured out the problem. What else is going well. Make lists of the good. Connect with those taking care of you. Let them know you are grateful. As you give to them you will receive so much in return. I loved all my peeps who helped me through this big experience. Get happy or to relieve your own suffering. Victim of volunteer? You choose.

Thanks for your suggestions everyone.

Hi everyone. I had mine on 4/8/15. Still sore and tired. But am sleeping at night now. Every day brings a little bit more of myself back. Just ate my first 2 oz meal of yogurt plus 1T Protein. Slight headaches now and then also. Otherwise good. Thumbs up!

One week out and you are not feeling great yet? I am guessing that I will take about two or three weeks before I feel like myself again. I go in tomorrow. This is our time to get good at positive self talk. Use your time well. We are pioneers in this new world.

Hi you. I go in tomorrow and I just want you to know that this post of yours gives me more courage and heart. Thanks. I hope to fee good in three weeks myself. Keep on keeping on!

I go in tomorrow! Have just ordered a bunch of samples from http://www.nashuanutrition.com/store/ so I will try things and report back about how it goes in a couple of weeks. I am so thrilled.

Look forward to discussion on the book. Warning it has a lot of honesty. She really covers a lot of territory.

Freelee, Let's stay in touch. I will be very interested in your reaction to the surgery, your recovery and impressions. I will let you know what I'm going through. Am hoping that I am healthy enough to recover as quickly and strongly as possible. I hope to get through the hard part as quick as possible. Am reading a very good book that I got (as an e book in kindle) called Stranger Here by a Utah author named Jen Larsen. Great read and good writing and all about what we are going through. If you read it, I hope you like it.

Thanks to all who posted to this question. Am very encouraged and motivated. Much appreciation.
