Thank goodness -My heart has stopped trying to kill me! One month after surgery!

I feel good.  I sleep better.  I feel much more confident.  I finally drive again.  I went 6 months with no driving because I had a faint at the wheel.  My scar does not look too bad.

I am using my arm for just about everything except lifting way above my head or sleeping on it.  I still have a little bruising and two tiny little stitches that have not dissolved.  I have attached pictures from today one month after surgery.


I can just about wear everything I wore before surgery.  I wish I could have heard these words when I was searching the internet.  It is not so bad or disfiguring as you might think.  Today I feel like it was a piece of cake, once I stopped eating all that fear.  

Notice how the scar is right at your strap area-  a lacy bra would irritate.
 I still have a little bruising 
This is where the Heart monitor was inserted and the bottom dot is where they took it out.
The bottom dot still has a black stitch that has not dissolved.
