Good news :)

I left hospital today, a few hours ago. I still carry the EKG device and have to check back on Monday. It was my own decision, there are no upcoming tests and would have been just monitoring until Tuesday. Initially it was said Saturday I am good to go. Last Monday... and then they prolonged it on Tuesday for another week to Tuesday morning. I asked for the reasons I can not come in like ambulant, for the readout and follow ups and the chief doctor said I should be good with the medication and ambulant visits until Tuesday. Then the EKG pads come off, I got new ones today to make sure they adhesive until Tuesday, so no showering, only "cat washing".

Killer argument was my daughter but in order to get the EKG device with me home and not stop the "curing process", I had to sign out myself to ambulant visits. A money and liability thing. They even would have let me drive a car so I can be on myself and it tells me it would have been three days just hanging around with the next doctor visit on Tuesday. 

I rather went home and picked up my daughter, she's in bed now, her own bed and in her familiar environment as well as I am. Before that I took the car and her for a short walk in nature, just needed that to refill. After only seeing white and smelling hospital smells the last two weeks it was good to wander around in nature a bit, smell the fresh air, hear the birds. We went to our little escape place. Have to play it cool still but I remembered my promise to show the source water distributor and natural fridge we have there. We didn't go to the ice cellar as it's up the hill and I didn't see myself walking up there, currently.

Excuse the dirt down there, there had to be a flooding of some kind normally it's clean like the ladder. When the runoffs are plugged it fills up in half a day and makes up a nice, clear spring water fridge keeping beverages and meat cool for days when we camp there

I don't know you TDDA, but my thoughts & prayers are with you. Your very unfortunate ordeal has scared the bejesus out of me as my younger brother has a similar heart issue. Hope all works out for the best.

I don't know you TDDA, but my thoughts & prayers are with you. Your very unfortunate ordeal has scared the bejesus out of me as my younger brother has a similar heart issue. Hope all works out for the best.

Thank you, I am over the critical phase hopefully and wish for your brother to be on the healing road too. At first I was really scared because I am engine mechanic and this is my engine, inside me that I can not fix. Feeling like a fully build up engine with a restrictor must "feel". 

Doctors are saying I will recover, not fully but chances are good for recovery, to not be too much restricted. I can walk on my own and do gain stamina slowly. I know other's got hit worse with it, no matter what the reason, COVID, the jab, or a precondition of the heart. It's, for me, not important, at least I tell myself that. I have to, because otherwise I think I would get depressions over the "jab was the reason"-idea. Amazing what the human mind is capable off when used rational on itself.

Currently it's more important to me to find a balance in taking it serious and not worrying too much. The next couple month I have to keep it real cool with any load. I should not carry weight or any stress. ACE dampers are the main medication currently, I can't get the other type because they are hard on the kidney and liver sometimes, so the docs do not risk anything there.

So no quick movements, no scares, not allowed / able to work physically a lot, practically the death jab for my engine shop. At least the insurance gave green light for up to 18 months of paying 75% of my average income and depends on how fast I can get a place in physical rehabilitation and progress there. Going back to an office job probably if I get one and may quit the shop, races and fast cars in general. It surprises me a bit how (currently) easy that feels. 

MO for the next months will be healing and looking into the future with optimism. Everything else I can not afford. I will also tone down my active presence in any discussion that can get heated, just not worth it. But I don't see that being an issue here.

My thoughts and prayers are with you. I’m glad you finally got a diagnosis.

I am very Happy you are Home.
I will keep you and your daughter in my nightly Meditation Season.
