Hi Ladies, I'm scheduling my first mammogram since SAVR about 15 months ago. I'm wondering if anyone had any issues given wiring of sternum. Thanks, Beth

Barely noticeable, like mine!
Glad to hear it Marie.
Huh, what scar? I can't see a thing... Mine is pretty good but the tissue around the cut is a bit lighter than the rest of the skin. Yours is none existing...
Let me get a magnifying glass:)
Ahhh-mazing!!! 👍❤️

Hi everyone. Today is my one year SAVR anniversary. Life is normal and I'm grateful for each day. I thought I would share surgery scar and scar today. I barely notice it anymore 😃 but more importantly, I know longer worry so much about what happens next. I'm so thankful... Read more.
