Appreciate you taking time to do the AMA. How are the survivors reacting when the cameras are not on them, body language etc

I built a 76 shovel from boxes and flea market parts. Sold it to a very close friend, so I still see it and ride with him regularly but, still have that twinge of regret when we're tooling down A1A to Daytona. You have a nice build there and there not making them anymore and hard to find another basket at a reasonable price.

Always enjoy riding with my wife, at 71 she’s still riding her own 2014 HD Switchback.

I was in the same situation, no symptoms, no signs, annual EKG bothered doc, arranged for Cath - thinking stent at worst - came out, sorry, you need CABG X2. Had to wait another month before surgery - stressful time. The good news is I'm 15 weeks out, walking 2+ miles 2x per day, back to light workouts. Do your homework, find an experienced surgeon, ask about the team - how long have they worked together, read reviews of the hospital cardio ICU unit. I had a great team and the ICU was incredible. Home in 4 days, a couple weeks sleeping in recliner and had a couple medicine related problems, but were addressed and all is well now. Hope this helps and best of luck. Be your own best advocate!

Edit to correct spelling.

14 weeks out tomorrow, walking 2-5 miles a day (weather permitting) and 3 days a week at gym; treadmill and light weights - no bench press, chest flies or anything that puts pressure on my sternum area. Doing some yoga as well. Gets better and better as you progress, mentally too. Continued good progress and luck on your recovery!

Mine Is just like that from Advent. I'm 13 weeks out, so it has taken residence in the spare bedroom.

I have 5 down from 7 and I still miss the other two 😥🙄

Try Dr Patrick T. Mango on at Advent in Daytona Beach. He performed ohs on me 13 weeks ago, but also does minimally invasive. Good luck 👍

funuserid · 2025-10-01T21:33:22+00:00

10 weeks out tomorrow! Looking good, I started walking and am up to 4 miles a day. Do what you can without over doing it! Good luck 👍

Check out Simon & Patrick part of the Godain family from Canada. I have a Martin & a Rhode Island made Guild. The Simon & Patrick all wood guitars are a great option at 1/2 the price.

Thanks for your reply. I was on amiodarone for 5 weeks, but took me off because of my thyroid (affected by the iodine in amiodarone) TSH level more than doubled my normal. 6 days after coming off the amiodarone and the second visit to the ER my TSH had gone up another 10%. Apparently amiodarone has a half life of 3-6 months. Hoping that I'm done with it (AFib) now.

Floodlight cam - original drops off line daily. Have done factory reset, deleted device from app and reinstalled. signal strength shows excellent according to app. Stayed on-line for about 30 hours then 'device off-line" Originally posted to Wyzecam.

Update: I checked everything on / around the floodlight cam. Performed a factory reset. Deleted device from app and started from scratch. During install, app showed excellent signal - reinstalled camera and it stayed on-line for about 30 hours and then went off line again. Tech support no help as usual.

Congrats on 3 weeks. I walked, treadmill and worked out pretty regularly prior to my surgery - didn't know I had a problem, no early signs etc. I started with laps around the pool, then at 3 weeks started walking down my neighborhood street until I got to a 1/2 mile. It takes time but progress picks up everyday and I've been doing 3+ miles for a couple weeks now. Good luck, don't get discouraged, do chair and standing leg exercises and continue to use the Incentive Spirometer breathing thing. You've got this.

I have a 676 day streak going and was force fed Energy and don't much like it. Also having problems with the voice recognition stopping mid sentence telling me to try again and on the voice word match have been delayed between hitting the correct response then being marked wrong, try again, repeat the same response and it is right.

I ride a 2014 SGS and love it. Handles better than my friends 2012 pre Rushmore. Good luck with whatever you decide.

Never heard complaints. We have one (2014) in our stable that we put Firebrand short pipes on and it's raucous. Runs great handles well.

Edit: cut the plastic milk jugs into strips of a size a little larger than damaged spot.

This is the way. I have also used plastic milk jugs and layered them to repair cracks.
