Title: Had 2nd EDAS left side SX. in Alabama
Post by 4evermine on Jul 13th, 2007 at 5:17pm
::)Just a note to everyone:

I came home from the hospital on July 8th, Dr. Winfield Fisher completed my 2nd EDAS surgery on the left side.  After surgery when I was in NICU, I had 2 TIA's (my whole right side went numb & no speech), went for a emergency CT Scan & everything was okay.  The doctor placed me on Dilatin 300mg daily until I return next week for the stitches are removed or possibly longer,  still no driving for 6 weeks.  
I am having on and off tightness at the surgery sight, the doctor states this should go away with the healing process.
I only wished I could get a good night of rest, I'm not use to sleeping on my back.

Keep me in your prayers & along with the Gene testing results.
Dana

hang in there Dana...every month will mark a little better progress.

Pretty soon you'll be an old timer like the rest of us here on the board! I am getting close to my 1st yr anniv (8/25) for STA-MCA double bypass's.

Figure that'll be a major milestone....but really looking forward to my 2nd year marker as a turning point for normal health!

hugs to ya....Diane
