137 days since my surgery (4.5 months)
Today they finally called me to tell me they have an opening for cardiac rehab. Huzzah!
Unfortunately, with work and travel, it's not going to be convenient for me to head out to the suburbs at the time available and then get back downtown for work. So when they finally do have an opening, it sure isn't convenient if you work.
So instead they are connecting me with Virtual Cardiac Rehab through an app and/or website. I have an intake appointment next week. The platform and app are called VHPGO.
This isn't ideal, but I also think it might be better for me to start charting my own course here and put together a plan that will work for me and my schedule. The therapist assigned to me is going to work with me over the next three months to talk about nutrition, exercise. mental health etc. I also get one-on-one nutritional counseling, live classes online and more.
Away we go.
