Having multiple heart attacks 5 vessel bypass and two strokes I am still able to get out and go.
Talk to your doctor about expectations. I felt terrible when I came home but after 3 months I was doing much better. I have had to have several stents since as two of the vessels closed.
Cardiac Rehab is also a great thing. Make sure you talk to the staff and let them know how your feeling. These people deal with this day in and out. They also can help with setting goals and managing expectations.
The most lingering thing I have encountered is a loss of appetite. Not always a bad thing if you want to lose weight.
I wish you well in your recovery and hope that you are ready to hit the road again soon.
