Hello everyone. I am now over 1 year out and other then some occasional shortness of breath seem to be not too bad heart wise. I am concerned about another issue that has recently developed though. My chest/sternum area has began hurting again. It started in 1 spot, about the size of a dime on or just between a rib on the right side of my incision scar. It hurts like mad to touch the spot. It has now progressed to the point that I am feeling like I did a few months post op, it hurts to move laundry around, to buckle my daughter into the car and it aches. First thing to my mind was maybe a wire is trying to poke out, but now with the spreading pain I am at a loss. Anybody had the same issues? I have called and have an apt with my surgeon in sept. but I am needless to say concerned. ty guys and god bless, talk soon
