Is medication a lifelong affair after bypass surgery.?
I think medication becomes less and less gradually in case of persons improving steadily after bypass surgery. Ultimately no medication may be necessary after a particular point of time. Am I right?
Thanks.
" that's very different from being fine." Will you please elaborate what is really "being fine"?

I have to ask, how do you know? do you have a ct scanner at home? It's obviously one thing to say you feel fine, but that's very different from being fine.
Anyway, I'm glad you feel like you are doing well.

"Enough is enough.
In 1999 the Institute of Medicine (IOM) published a report which stated that nearly 98,000 people die needlessly each year because of medical mistakes. In 2009 the Consumers Union published a follow up to the IOM report basically stating that absolutely nothing had changed in the past ten years. The Consumers Union concluded that "There is little evidence to suggest that the number of people dying from medical harm has dropped since the IOM first warned about these deadly mistakes a decade ago." The Consumers Union projects that preventable, medical mistakes account for more than 100,000 deaths each year- or as many as one million lives over the past decade."
