How long after the by-pass surgery you had
no chest pain ? Have you done any medical
heart investigations after the by-pass
surgery?
Do you suffer from high blood pressure,
diabetes, high cholesterol... and do you
smoke?

sternium pain Posted: 05-21-08 13:29pm
quit smoking after heart attack 11/1/05 do
not have high col, do not have diabetes
blood pressure high norm stress test ok
did have stint put un upper left 9/07 but
aches were all ready there the more tired
i get the more it hurts and my scar swells
up and turn dark red
If the chest pain and tiredness continue
to persists you may need to to do
coronarography to investigate if those
stint and by-pass are blocked again or
there are new blockages on some other
heart arteries. If coronarography is OK
like the stress-test then the pain
probably doesn't origin from the heart.
You can consult some cardiologist about
your condition.

they just ran tests heart is up to par but
i think i may have confused you its the
chest wall and tissue the center of the
sternum outward aprox 3 inches the bone
for lack of better word is raised by the
incision 3/4 to1/2 inch all the way down
to the end of the incision it aches burns
ect is this normal i take tylonal for it
You might have some local infection on the
skin above the sternum. You can consult
your primary health provider to confirm or
rule out this assumption.
