Breast bone wiring

Posted by freedancer69 @freedancer69, Mar 4 12:32pm

Can any of you tell me about the wiring of the best bone back into place after an Aortic Septal Myectomy? Did you have a great deal of pain? Did it hurt to breathe? I am very nervous about my surgery on the 11 of April. I will be going to the University of Colorado Hospital and my Doctor is Dr Cleveland.

Interested in more discussions like this? Go to the Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy (HCM) Support Group.

I am 62, trying to improve the health i have. Sometimes dealing with chronic health issues you vacillate
Between fear and wellness emotions.
People around you can' t connect or don't want to. I don't want to be one of those people who talk about my illness all the time. I would rather focus on wellness. Unfortunately, my wellness curve has taken a dive. I would like to have a good eval of my heart function and esp tricuspid valve. Interested in a TTVR, trans catheter tricuspid valve replacement. Looking for facility who does them, any info appreciated🙂

@freedancer, the nurses help teach you how to do this while you are in the hospital.
I felt like a beetle bug stuck on its back, flailing my arms, trying to get out of bed...but with the helpful tips to roll, get your legs over the side and then sit up, it all came together. I never looked like a graceful gazelle, but it worked and that's all that mattered!
