It seems like everything is looking stable. My X-rays have been clean with only the tiny Effusions on both sides. In honor of Siswan, I'll call them my little Merlins and hope they stay cute as a button.
Still sleeping like crap but it's the hospital. I am in much better breathing shape now than I was when I left the first time so that gives me hope.
I have been forcing myself to walk more than they recommend even though it kills my back so my lungs can get stronger through exercise as well as the breathing incentive thingy which I'm doing as well.
My doctor said 10-20% of CABG patients get this Pleural Effusion side effect and he doesn't expect I'll have to come back for that again.
Now, to get a hold of my roommate so he can get the house shipshape....prays hard....
Thank you for continuing to stay with me in spirit, I have not felt alone for a single moment even with no visitors.
DUERS are the greatest!!!
