Lying in bed finishing a novel last night, I found a very fine strand of wire protruding from my incision over the sternum. The strand can't be more then a few thou or MM in thickness. I'm not thinking it is a broken sternum closing wire as from what I found, the wire for closing the sternum is .025 in dia or 22 gage. This should be a single strand wire so I do not believe this protruding fine wire to be a strand from a sternum closing wire.
I looked at my temp pacer wires, [ok, I know it's weird but I saved them after they were removed]. This is also a single strand wire so this fine wire is not from a pacer wire.
Any ideas as to what the fine protruding wire from my sternum incision may be a result of?
