Hello

I had a Arotic valve replacement in oct last year I had a really bad time post op. The wound wasn.t healing took so long to close up Properly.

I had the antic vac treatment.

An cause of the infection i I kept getting

I had the larva treatment as well. They worked really well

an I been having a lot of pain an discomfort I had a C T Scan which has shown my sternum bone has not healed together an keeps moving which is causing all the pain Ouch .

I now have to go back to BHI hospital for another op in the same place

Sorry for waffling on

I think you need to speak to Gp an get them to check your wound area again ask for a C T scan

Hope this was helpful
