@lioness Did the doctors ever tell you that you could possibly need a revision of your bypass? I am curious if bypasses are now a lifetime cure or if they need to be redone after so many years. I know each person is different And it depends on the graft, what was used. I need to update myself in this area! Thank you for sharing your experience! Always good to have a fellow nurse to talk too!!

@kariulrich I'm sorry I never checked back till now Yes after my by pass the Dr said I might have to have another one in 10 yrs but haven't had any problems since then I changed my diet More fruits ,vegies no red meat now only occasionally. My Dr had me go for a test to see how my blood was flowing through the arteries can't remember name but it looked good those tiny valves where doing great I'm 78 now before Covid started I started a chair exercise program now do on u tube I give God all the credit in keeping me here Sorry for long delay
