Four months today at this time I was in la-la land still. Time sure flies by!!! I don't know how I would have been able to cope without this site and the wonderful people on here.
I am back at work, went back the first Monday in April. Since I teach, I worked 2 weeks and am off for Easter break. I sleep good and have a good appetite but I came home from the hospital with a good appetite.:D They said that was unusual.
I feel good but still do not have a lot of energy. I still also have some shoulder and shoulder blades pains. I have frequent headaches, not bad ones, just a slight headache. But I can count on one hand the number of headaches I have had in my whole life before now.
I also had some problems with Atrial flutter about a month ago. I am now taking Digoxin and it seems to have taken care of the flutter. I am wearing a recorder but no flutter to record.:)
I am in Cardiac Rehab 3 days a week. I find that very enjoyable. Maybe that will help work these kinks out of my shoulders.

Praline,
I think you will find that you feel better each and every week that passes. I bet by the time you start school next August, you will feel almost perfect!:)

Time does fly, doesn't it?
Massage works really great for the shoulder kinks. You might be able to find a chiropracter that has a massage therapist on staff and that way you should get it covered by insurance.
Hope things continue to go well.
