Marie Myers Sometimes because of our position on the table during open heart surgery, pressure or pulling on nerves in our neck, arms or shoulder can cause nerve irritation or damage. Most of these symptoms may clear up with time. Some people experience numbness or tingling also. I did not experience this, but many patients have had it. Speaking with your surgeon is a good idea, and if it does not resolve with time, you could see your primary doc for more ideas. Hope it resolves soon!
Richard Munson Agree with marie. What she says rings true. Ugh.
