    No, they are employees of the hospital. The doctors just come in and perform surgery and get paid as third party. The case manager is the hospital staff just like ICU professionals.

    For some reason my Dad gets pain relief if I push his Angiogram arm (from last Monday) towards the ceiling


    The Dr my Dad loved came to check on him.

    Dr said valve was placed perfectly . Dad says he is not surprised and Dr shook/held my Dad's hand with both his hands.


    Says he needs to take Baby Aspirin for life.

    Dr said all Dr take single Baby Aspirin a day

    When Dad ask what time of day to take Aspirin dr said anytime

    Dad said he thought night is better that way patient will be alive in morning

    Then Dad said that was sense of humor

    Baby Aspirin 81mg is suggested mostly for many adults to make the blood flow easily. It is a mild dose. It will reduce any clots in circulation. Please keep an eye on any cuts your dad gets in future as it will take a lot longer to clot. Any procedures in future, you have to remember, he needs to stop taking Asprin one week before the procedure.

    I.made my Dad's pain worse

    When I lifted his other srm.i unknowingly pressed the IVs further into his skin.

    He got angry and upset with me

    I said I will be careful and lift again but he is traumatized by the increased pain I inflicted

    New nurse on dury wants to give pain meds

    Dad says he wants tolerance for pain

    Nurse says it's Tylenol not narcotics

    Nurse we are giving painkillers to remove stress,

    Dad says that people take painkillers to remove stress, including junkies who take narcotics

    Nurse says those junkies didn't have TAVR procedure

    My Dad said ok

    Why do you have to lift his arm? Let him take rest.
