Hello, I had redo open heart surgery with re-replacement of my tricuspid valve after the first prosthetic valve got infected. The awesome Mayo docs also found a severe blockage in my main blood vessel returning blood to the heart (superior vena cava) and opened it up with a pericardial patch. In some ways I feel like a million bucks now, but I'm having so much trouble with nausea and not getting enough calories despite G tube feeds. 3 weeks out I'm still having a lot of chest wall pain (feels muscular plus mediastinum healing). I thought I would feel better by now. I stopped opioids on postop day 10 and am just relying on Tylenol/Advil and frequent ice packs and short walks. Has anyone else here been a little down about how bad they feel at 3 weeks out postop? I need to gain weight, way too thin, any advice greatly appreciated! Be well and let's all stay positive--ef
