Do You Find Yourself Feeling Vulnerable In Crowded Spaces, Or Find Yourself Trying Not To Be A Burden?
A MyHeartDiseaseTeam Member asked a question 💭

I find myself suddenly wanting to rush home and get back to "safety" when I am at a doctor's waiting room, a public elevator...And then I realize that although everyone in my family are wonderful helping me, I try not to need help so I don't feel like I am imposing.

Does Anyone Else Feel Like They Cannot Eat Properly?
A MyHeartDiseaseTeam Member asked a question 💭

I just can't seem to eat healthy. I know exactly what I should be eating and how much but it's like I don't even care. I survived a heart attack wouldn't you think that I would want to prevent another one if I could. It feels like I don't even care because I'll eat whatever I want to and it's not good. It's like pass the cheesecake in the chocolate now please

My surgeon at the Mayo clinic told me my cholesterol is hereditary and meds will keep it in check. I take my meds and eat like I did before my 5 bypass and all cholesterol is low

How Concerned Should I Be With Post Heart Surgery Crying/sadness?
A MyHeartDiseaseTeam Member asked a question 💭

I had a heart bypass on 11/23/22. Physically I am doing well and making good progress. However, after 2.5 weeks I started crying for no reason and get sad. I am able to pull myself out of it but it continued to happen. The nurses just say it is normal and the goal is to have more good than sad moments. My research shows this is normal but I would like to know more - how long will this last? What steps can I do to stop it before it starts? When should I be concerned? Am I doing it too much?

I was fortunate I guess. I was not afflicted with that problem.(I'm actually surprised by it.) It's surprising to me how many were. Hugs to you all...I pray it gets better for you.
