Breast bone wiring

I am doing ok. I do not have to use oxygen during the day now, just at night when sleeping. I can do all my chores on my own but find I have to do them slowly and I have to sit down about every 8 to 10 minutes. I found it easier to pick one chore a day and do it. I don't get so tired. I took out my own drain stitches today. I find that my back hurts alot if I overdo activities. I am using my breathing apparatus regularly so I can get better at taking a breath. Thanks for asking about me.

Were you happy with Anschutz? I live in Colorado but my cardio is pretty insistent on the Mayo.

Glad you are doing OK and slowly but surely recovering. Interesting about the stitches - mine were all glued - no stitches at all anywhere! Different techniques all with the same end result.
