Hi KVS,

Unfortunately, there is no universal answer to your question because we humans are so variable in our physical responses to major trauma.

I'm sure that I needn't remind you that you have just been through a MAJOR trauma.

When these things begin to get you down, shift your thoughts to how glad you are to be exchanging Carbon Dioxide with Oxygen, and that the grass remains in it's proper place; beneath your feet.

Best wishes to you and all who suffer similarly,

Bart
