10 months after minimally invasive bypass surgery LAD I am still tired and depressed.. any answers--took months to recover. After cardiac rehab was over went into severe depression finally began walking regime this summer but can't get energy and stamina back age 54
Depression is quite frequent problem among heart patients, especially after surgery. It is not easy to manage, so you should be patient. He needs much support from the family. Usually rehabilitation programs are helpful, I don't know if he has participated a rehabilitation course after the surgery. If he can't overlook the astgeny and depression himself for a long time, then you need to refer a specialist.
Take care
