Hello my name is Vicki
I had my Aortic valve replaced January 10th 2018. The healing process has been very frustrating for me. I guess I'm wondering if there is any one out there that had any open heart surgery has strange feelings in their chest or even in their ribs that they can feel the wires moving. I had my 3rd visit to cardiac rehab and not sure if I did to much that caused my wires and my plate to move causing some pain and soreness. I guess I'm hoping that this is part of the healing process. If anyone could possibly lend a little advice my way would be wonderful. Thank you :)

Marie Myers If you search this site for "non healing sternum", several stories will pop up. It is unusual, but it can happen. Would definitely get my surgeons opinion on your symptoms.
Susan Killian Thank you for asking, all these answers make me less worried about the process too.
