Jack's continuing odyssey through by-pass territory: a side trip
On day one, the old pump had new pipes and was beating like new.
By day four, all of the incisions had healed. Nothing ever hurt.
By day seven, the surgeon sent me home because "he was tired of looking at me."
At home everything was going well and progress was "normal" early. But for the next week, progress became spasmodic, and it seemed unusual that some places began hurting which had not hurt before, and I was losing lots sleep and was most uncomfortable and weak,. So yesterday, the on the 14th day, off to the Harris Emergency Room we went at 10:30 a.m.. The surgeon was in NYC and the cardiologist was unavailable.The ER staff was most pleasant and efficient. In a couple of hours, many tests and x-rays were done. About 1:30, The nice young doctor Disney in charge came in and said, "You have a little drainage fluid around the lower lobe of your left lung; it is quite common, and we can drain it in a simple 30 minute procedure. In a few minutes a smiling tall surgeon came in and said "This won't hurt at all; I will stick a needle in your back just above your waist, and gravity will do the rest."
I sat on the edge of the bed; he was correct, I felt no pain when the needle went in or thereafter. I began feeling better immediately.
I was shocked when he showed me bag of bloody drainage fluid. The "little drainage" predicted had filled a huge plastic bag and was starting a second.. "How much?," I asked. "More than two quarts!"
No wonder I was feeling bad. Inside my left lung lobe I had something bigger than this...
or
this.
By 4:30 p,m. I was resuming my trip to recovery feeling much better!
Thanks to all who sent email, cards and flowers!
Hoping to be more back to normal in a few more days.
Jack
