Have you gained back much of what you lost? Did you suffer from constant fatigue?
It is sad about not really wanting to go out. I am afraid to go a few blocks for fear of not having the strength to get back.

I'll never regain what I lost, everything has changed especially my balance. Sometimes I have to hold onto the walls just to walk straight. Getting up and down 5 flights of stairs is really hard. I have to move my car everyday or I'll get a $20. ticket so I have to do it. I think it's just a test to see how much I can really stand.
And I am very tired ALL the time.
I can't imagine how tired you get at 73. It must be crippling. I have to take in a little more caffeine just to function.
I guess what Bette Davis said was true: Getting old isn't for sissies.
