Hi - I am 68 - not overweight - (12stone - 5’ 8”) so not exactly lean and mean either! 😊
I had a double bypass using mammary gland and lower leg vein 11 months ago. Recovered really well - still a bit numb in left chest and lower leg areas but I have driven to and all over Spain 4 months after the op - walk 1 to 2 miles daily and overall very pleased with my rehabilitation.
I am not a worrier - but noticed a couple of months ago a “puffiness” over the numb area of my left boob - not sure if it’s been there since the op as I had a lot of stinging for a few months after in that same area and hugged a pillow in bed at night for a good few months which really helped.
My first reaction is - it’s a bit of nerve / muscle damage and as I am not a “gym fan” - it will probably be there forever - but I occasionally think - “it is graft leaking?” - but I take my blood pressure every week and it is good / normal so just wondered if any other chaps had the same experience?
