After my CABG x2 I took the rehab class. The nurses were great and listened to my questions.
My husband had 5X CABG open heart surgery 4 days ago and we are already home. That's why I'm asking for advice from anyone willing to help...
#1- why would his neck and shoulder swell on the right side, (the side of the central line) and what to do about it
#2- any advice for a life long stomach sleeper because he can't do that now
#3- if he gets too hot, (not exercising, just because it's summer) is that bad on the heart, and why
*Any other advice will be greatly appreciated as well as prayers for a fast recovery
Thank you all in advance,
Worried wife/caregiver of 60 year old CABG X5way open heart surgery patient
Try to get him an air conditioned room. Ask his surgical staff about his neck or any other questions.
thanks this was very informative
I'm glad the pain is downplayed here.
After surgery the pain is imaginable. 3 weeks after Is still painful chest wall , neck shoulders, back ribs and lungs. They down played the whole recovery. Unless ,they mess me up during the surgery. Also , the only pain medicine I'm allowed to take is Tylenol Here in Canada maybe different care ,but let me tell you the pain is unbearable and I am on my own basically
Call your surgeon and doctor and complain you should be on some opiates for two weeks after surgery. Complaining bitterly on pain scale only way for you to get stronger meds. Be a total pain call every day. It's ridiculous for you to be in so much pain. Don't give up.
Damn that gonna hurtt
Thank you my sister is young 43 just had a open heart surgery thank God she doing very good. After one week. Her story . Was Dr forget to give penicillin injection monthly for 3 yesrs. When she was 16.
I’m 20 and I’m going to have open heart surgery in a month
@@haydnw869 I am so sorry bud, that is so sad to see young people going through health problems, but OHS is a good thing too, it will keep you alive longer and you and I will feel much better afterwards, or six weeks later it sounds like.
@@TWHISPERER well I’m out of the hospital now and whilst I am recovering I found out I have a rare condition and the surgeon said they don’t know if the surgery will improve my condition or if it just stopped me from dying and the worst part is that my problem is genetic so in a decade or two I’ll still need a new heart
@@haydnw869 What is this rare condition Haydn?
@@haydnw869how do you feel about it? You don’t seem scared at all. I be having heart pains sometimes & I’m 22 f going to the doctor & they say some crazy stuff
I had my open heart Surgery october2022 for ASD and doing very good I still needs 4to5months to heal better

none of this happens you have to ask!!
Dam I’m 20 years old with DCM and I’m about to have open heart surgery
How’d it go I’m 25 getting open heart this Friday what did you recovery look like was it any faster since we are younger
@@nickvamvakas3154 ok so here’s what happened. I woke up I’m the emergency word and they took some tubes out of my stomach and then I threw up and I couldn’t really remember most days in the emergency word.
Honestly the important things are your chest will feel super tight and sore and you’ll be coughing up a lot of Flem because your lungs will have fluid in them and honestly that was the worst part.
You also might feel sick because you’ll still have wires in you and it will upset you
@@nickvamvakas3154are you okay
@@nickvamvakas3154so you not scared of going under?
How'd you go bro? That's crazy at 20 years old! Hope it went well.
