Shooting after bypass
How many months? Doc says 3 and I'll be fine. Any experience?

Re: Shooting after bypass
The biggest issue is the stainless steel wire they use to close your sternum. It takes time to heal up properly. If it hurts, wait a little longer till it does not. You don't want to screw this up, give it the proper respect and time. Everyone is a little different depending upon their medical condition. I have seen a lot of these over a forty year career in anesthesiology, as well as have seen a good number of friends recover from bypass surgery.
