My sister had shoulder pain and needed stents, I had chest pressure several times before giving in to the fact I was having a heart attack, open heart surgery sucks.

It took me six years to get rid of Vagus nerve pain no help from my doctors,I had a wonderful OR director reset my vagus nerve and I am ecstatic.

Glad to hear you are ecstatic

Could you tell me what an ' OR director ' is?

The person in charge of Operating rooms, I don't know more than that but I am grateful.

Why does OHS suck. Thousands here, myself included, have benefitted from it. Yes it takes some months to recover but it is worth it! 😀

Totally agree, Michael, we’re both still here to tell the tale, we might not have been if we hadn’t had OHS.

My vagus nerve must have been damaged not only, that I had been diagnosed with sleep apnea a year after the open heart. Thats not the right order!
