Noooooo! I'm dreading it in the northeast. It was in the 70's, today.

One year ago today I was undergoing open heart surgery for an aortic valve replacement. Today I am so thankful for my medical team, friends, family and to my many friends on this site, especially Rob Sparling- my anniversary buddy!

Nancy, I'm sorry you're having pain! Hope you feel much better soon. I had a pleural effusion that they drained in the hospital--the needle went in what felt like the lower back and I did experience some pain in that area for a few days. My effusions lingered several months,... Read more.

I had pleural effusion and it was drained in the hospital before I could be discharged. Wasn't getting adequate oxygen and was very light-headed. After it was drained I did experience some discomfort for about 2 weeks, but not since. I would also check with your surgeons office or cardiologist.
