I have chronic pain in my chest since those surgeries. The best guess from my doctors is that major scar tissue is causing the pain. I’ve tried a few things to see if I can stop this pain (medication, acupuncture, cortisone injections, lidocaine patch) but so far nothing has helped much. Curious if anyone else has experienced chronic pain after surgery(ies).

In addition, my aneurysm was caused due to a genetic marker HLAB 27. Does anyone else have this?

Hi, I scheduled for genetic testing since my father and brother both had aneurysms. Don't totally understand it.
