After two days of testing in Boston I was exhausted. The testing didn't tire me out as much as the heat and humidity. Too damn hot and muggy fo me. Never have I been able to handle the combination of both.
Anways, some friends have inquired what's going on. I was doing some pre operative testing, gonna have heart surgery. No valve job, no pacemaker or defib device. Getting my heart shaved. The inside wall of my heart should be 12 mm thick and it's 19 mm. The extra width is blocking the valve, so my heart in a sense backs up. This causes pain and shortness of breath and after six heart attacks its time to get fixed.
Now two to three months out of work recovering from this surgery won't be easy, it's won't be hard either. Thankfully there will be morphine to handle the pain of them sawing my ribs.
I'll have a visiting nurse for a couple of weeks and diarrhea too! They don't want you pushing hard to do a bowel movement. Now I can schedule the surgery for September but I am gonna hold off until January. One, I want to take my vacations later this year. But more importantly want to see how bad this covid surge gets.
So there you have it.
