Monitoring Health After a Hospital Visit

For distribution JUN 27 DSC01518 (2)  2014 This is an Excel log that I made in order to help track my husband’s vital signs and symptoms after he came home from the hospital a little over five months ago.  Below are pictures of the equipment we used in this time period when we were getting oversight by the doctors, and being very watchful ourselves.  The equipment we used, we already had on hand, and was not expensive.

Surprisingly, after heart surgery, his shoulder was sore enough for a couple of  weeks to warrant use of this heating pad.
