" Being tired and depressed are just part of the process. I am still tired a lot and depressed most of the time a year after a quad bypass but it is different for all people.

No pain though that is a good thing. "

" I got on anti depressants and then worked a cardiac rehab exercise deal..slowly but surely I was less tired as I got stronger. I then gave up the anti depress meds as walking seemed to have a more beneficial effect..I also forced myself to interact with people..as my depression was in large part fear based..heart problems seemed to have created new fears and exacerbated old ones.
