At Times I Forget?

At times I forget I had open heart surgery!

When I sleep.  Before heart surgery there was the anticipation.  Before the doctors visit November 16th, I knew something was wrong.  When I new I needed surgery, it was hard to sleep some nights,  After surgery, it was like sleeping with glass, I didn't want to break anything!  And the meds, at first they made it difficult to sleep!  But four months later, working and coaching, I AM SLEEPING WELL!

When I move & lift & for the first time mowing the grass, I sometimes forget I had open heart surgery.  The breast plate is healing and I feel stronger.  I am almost ready to start regular pushups!  And Monday I go golfing for the first time since surgery!

I try not to forget that eating is important!  As I mentioned in an earlier blog, my busy schedule makes it difficult to eat at the same time & to have the time to prepare!  I really need to focus the next two months till the end of school!  Breakfast is OK, lunch at times is difficult, and by supper, Sue and I are usually both very tired after a long day!  NEED TO PLAN!

My meds I take seem to be handled well by my body.  I feel tired because of some of the meds & m schedule, but I seem to be OK with the routine.  The Metoprolol, for my PVC's I think does kick my butt, but hopefully with improve my heart beat issues!

All in all, I feel I am making progress!
