I'm going once a month to Coptic parish. Will I need to be baptized and chrismated.
I'm praying I'll live to do that. I have a bad heart. On much meds. to live.

You'll only need to be chrismated, not re-baptized.

So you’re an Eastern Orthodox believer, slowly converting to the Coptic Orthodox Faith?
Forgive me if I have misunderstood...

No need for chrismation (historically speaking this is the precedence we have from St. Severus), just a confession of faith (so basically a repudiation of Chalcedon lol)

... That's not what happens now. The bare minimum has always been chrismation.

you're wrong. That may be current practice but that is not the historical precedent. Read this article by abouna Peter Farrington:
