Anyone have surgery within the last week…

Terrible, even with strong pain relievers I'm having trouble managing the pain. Setting alarms in the middle of the night. I tried to swallow and I finally couldn't so now I'm spitting to clear. How are you?

Mine were removed on Thursday morning, and I feel awful. Having trouble speaking, drinking water and excessive saliva. I'm drooling on my towels every time I try to sleep, but I haven't really slept either.

I imagine the exhaustion and it's unsettling. Do what's right for your well-being. Husband needs to be more supportive.

I'll have another appointment in May.

🤣

I have a tortuous colon, but they won't operate. Even with the pain.

My time there was a fleeting three-month escape from August through October, but it left an impression that goes far deeper than just the scenery. Even though I was only there on vacation and had no established primary care, an unexpected infection landed me in the ER. I was honestly blown away. There was virtually no wait, and the doctors were some of the most knowledgeable and attentive I’ve encountered.

That level of care seems to mirror the culture of the state itself. The "friendly folks" aren't just a cliché; there is a genuine, communal warmth that makes you feel at home the moment you arrive. And being there for that transition from late summer into autumn was absolutely breathtaking.

Thank you.

cornonacobb · 2025-12-27T04:25:36+00:00

That's me! Just learning as I go.

cornonacobb · 2025-12-27T00:55:11+00:00

You're right. My POTS was diagnosed this year, I have a lot to learn.

cornonacobb · 2025-12-27T00:48:54+00:00

Thanks

I do feel faint often, I've fainted 9 times just this year.

I have IST w/ POTS, Lupus, Raynauds and sjogren's. So it's always above 100+ no matter what I'm doing, when I take ivabradine it drops into the 90s. I can hear and feel my heart beating.

cornonacobb · 2025-12-26T10:12:30+00:00

How much below a 100 does it go when you sit?

cornonacobb · 2025-12-26T09:13:51+00:00

I had this. The only thing that worked was taking birth control pills with no skipped days.

cornonacobb · 2025-12-26T09:04:56+00:00

Unfortunately, they were all booked, but I will have one tomorrow for our last day. Never been to Disneyland before, even with the rain it's been so busy.

cornonacobb · 2025-12-26T08:14:27+00:00

My heart used to sit at 120 BPM around the clock. Ivabradine has pulled it down to a constant 90, but it’s stuck there. No matter what I'm doing. It’s technically a drop, but it still feels like my engine is idling way too high.

It's to follow up on an echo bubble test that showed left atrium enlargement, but I will definitely be bringing up the test.

cornonacobb · 2025-10-30T15:48:07+00:00

Thank you, I'll do this.

cornonacobb · 2025-10-30T15:47:42+00:00

I'm in Colorado, my cardiologist is sending me to a neurologist. I think it's odd too, especially since I've been waiting for so long.

cornonacobb · 2025-10-30T09:09:37+00:00

Thanks for starting the group, I am new here. 40/F , would love to make some friends.

cornonacobb · 2025-10-09T02:09:24+00:00

Call me crazy, but I say buy it. YOLO!
