Anyone take this and have heart problems? My husband was prescribed it but had an open heart surgery on 5/8 and an ablation 2 days ago. He also has high blood pressure and diabetes 2.

My husband has been in a major state of anxiety/depression for about 2 years. Recently, he’s had open heart surgery. He’s presently on amantadine, seroquel, Pristiq and memantine. When he wakes up, he immediately goes into an anxiety mode….every single day. However, when he picks up a book or word search, he’s focused and no longer in that excruciating anxiety state. What is happening??

Anyone have ECT after OHS? If so, how long after surgery did you have to wait before starting treatment?

My hubby’s surgery is scheduled for this Friday, 5/8. If you could please give me recommendations for before, during and after, I’d appreciate it, like: -things to bring to the hospital -tricks that helped with recovery Thanks❤️‍🩹
