Come on, Jim, that's just mean, untrue, and uncalled for.
One of our own is going under the knife tomorrow, as you were when you

Jim´s being ill-informed - as usual. There are other people around
here who notice when Jim T posts nonsense, and occasionally comment on
it.

Good luck with it Bill. Artificial or porcine valve replacement?
Porcine. At 67 I=B4m old enough that they figure that there is an
adequate chance that
I=B4ll drop dead before this one wears out.
The new valve is in place and working fine, but the rest of the
heart is taking its time to adapting to not having to pump through a
100mm Hg pressure drop across the old aortic valve. My pulse rate
climbed about 180bpm over the first few days, which has been
controlled with some 300millligram per day of beta-blocker. but the
pulse rate is irregular, and I=B4m not up to much.
The operating hospital tried electro-cardio-version on Saturday, when
the irregularity first set in, and that worked fine for a couple of
hours. The hospital where I=B4ve been looked after since Sunday won=B4t
try again until my anti-coagulant drugs are consistently giving
clotting time three time the number they first measured, which usually
takes about a weeek to set up, so I=B4m stuck in hospital for a few days
yet.

Irregularity can be controlled many times by just getting enough Calcium and magnesium.
It takes a while befor blood magnesiun gets into the cells, calling it cell magnesium.
Beta blockers do reduce blood pressure.

Still praying for you.
The Cochrane collaboration recommends other interventions.

I don't know, my wife calculated it and she's a former nurse. Two of
those large blimp-shaped pills from a big Costco supplement bottle is
what I take every morning.
No major back pain episodes since then, knocking on wood here.

pulse rate is irregular, and I=B4m not up to much.
The operating hospital tried electro-cardio-version on Saturday, when
the irregularity first set in, and that worked fine for a couple of
hours. The hospital where I=B4ve been looked after since Sunday won=B4t
try again until my anti-coagulant drugs are consistently giving
clotting time three time the number they first measured, which usually
takes about a weeek to set up, so I=B4m stuck in hospital for a few days
yet.
Irregularity can be controlled many times by just getting enough Calcium and magnesium.
It takes a while befor blood magnesiun gets into the cells, calling it cell magnesium.
Beta blockers do reduce blood pressure.
Interesting. I take that stuff to stave off back pain.

Internet-connected computer at the far end of the ward, so I've got to
put in an irreducible quantum of exercise before I can log on. It
would qualify as sneaky if there weren't plenty of beds closer to the

pulse rate is irregular, and I´m not up to much.
The operating hospital tried electro-cardio-version on Saturday, when
the irregularity first set in, and that worked fine for a couple of
hours. The hospital where I´ve been looked after since Sunday won´t
try again until my anti-coagulant drugs are consistently giving
clotting time three time the number they first measured, which usually
takes about a weeek to set up, so I´m stuck in hospital for a few days
yet.

Still praying for you.
The Cochrane collaboration recommends other interventions.
They may not know it all ...
But they are the people who are promoting a rational scheme for
working out, what does - and doesn't - work.
Sure, and that's great. However, man not only needs to tend to his body
but also to his soul. One doesn't work well without the other being kept
healthy as well.
Get well soon.
Working on it.
And keep that Berenburger bottle under the bed so the nurses can't see
it :-)
I wouldn't take decent beer anywhere near a hospital, admirable source
of B-vitamins though it is.
Hey, Berenburger ain't no beer :-)
When I was in an army hospital after a kablouie sort of incident me and
a submariner snuck out, across a large exercise yard after dark, and
into a pub to have a few cold ones. Boy did we get read the riot act
later ...
So I take it that not having the Ziekenhuis tagline means you are home?
Hooray!
No such luck! I may get home on Monday, but nobody is making any
promises.

Good luck with it Bill. Artificial or porcine valve replacement?
Porcine. At 67 I´m old enough that they figure that there is an
adequate chance that
I´ll drop dead before this one wears out.
The new valve is in place and working fine, but the rest of the
heart is taking its time to adapting to not having to pump through a
100mm Hg pressure drop across the old aortic valve. My pulse rate
climbed about 180bpm over the first few days, which has been
controlled with some 300millligram per day of beta-blocker. but the
pulse rate is irregular, and I´m not up to much.

Actually, it's only now about to happen. There's still some (non-
financial) paper-work to sort out, mainly involving when I come back
in for outpatient monitoring (and probably some fiddling with my dose
of beta-blocker, which is at the maximum at the moment).
Any time now they will show up with the paper work, and I'll be in a
position to negotiate the right moment for my wife to come and whisk
me away. Happily, her Mondays are pretty much free of scheduled
meetings.
It looks as if I'll end up having spent exactly two weeks in hospital
- not bad for open heart surgery.
