MYTH: I’m completely cured!!!
REALITY:
Your angina should certainly be gone, but your old arteries (coronary) still have the same disease as before. Your bypass surgery has treated the problem but not the cause of the artery disease. It is for this reason that we encourage a healthy lifestyle following Coronary Artery By-Pass Grafting:
- Not Smoking
- Low Saturated fat and high fibre diet
- Regular exercise program
Such activities help preserve your new grafts.
MYTH: I can’t go back to work following major surgery!
REALITY:
Oh yes you can!! About 4 – 6 weeks after your surgery you can start going back to work provided your job is not physically heavy.
Prior to this you should build yourself up with increasing activities over the days.
Listen to your body. You will know if you are doing too much.
You will be able to return to all previous activities, but be patient.
