How is your boyfriend doing now, Britney? Is he home? How is he handling his early recovery? And how old is he if you don't mind me asking? I had quintuple bypass surgery nearly 7 1/2 years ago at age 67 and, despite the fact that they tell you it generally takes a year to fully recover, I was back to lifting weights in three months (after my sternum was healed) and running after. another month). If an old guy like me could heal that fast, it bodes well for your boyfriend.
I hope the hospital informed him about cardiac rehab programs in your area. They are great at helping people recover from open heart surgery.
Please keep us posted. And the more you can tell us, the more likely you'll find people who can relate and respond to you.
Best of luck to both of you.
