I'm kind of confused and worried about a few things related to my health and life after my CABG surgery back on December 30, 2013. I've been on tablets like ROSUFIT 10MG and MetXL 12.5 since then and was wondering if it's alright for me to play shuttle every day? Also, I've noticed my desire for intimacy is increasing, but my partner seems a bit drained with it all, which makes me feel pretty low the next morning. Is it safe to be intimate every day? Do you have any advice on how I could make things better with my partner?
1. Can I play shuttle every day after CABG done in 2013 using ROSUFIT 10MG and met-xl 12.5? Yes, you can play shuttle every day after CABG. Just make sure to follow your doctor's advice and take your medications as prescribed, including ROSUFIT 10MG and met-xl 12.5. 2. Sex feelings are increasing day by day but my partner is fed up with me, leading to depression the next morning. What should I do? It's important to communicate openly with your partner about your feelings and concerns. Consider seeking couples therapy or counseling to address any issues in your relationship. Additionally, managing stress and practicing self-care can help improve your mental well-being. 3. Is it safe to have sex every day after CABG? What can I do to satisfy my partner? It is generally safe to have sex after CABG, but it's important to listen to your body and not exert yourself excessively.

If you have concerns about your sexual health, consider consulting a healthcare provider for personalized advice.

Despite this and his efforts like walking and cutting down on salt, his blood pressure still isn't going down. Is there anything else we can do to help reduce his BP?
