One question and one random observation.
My question: now that my sternum is noticeably healing, I'm starting to notice that it appears to be healing... unevenly? My left side is much more sore than my right. Anybody else get a sense their sternum didn't heal symmetrically?
Observation: I think OHS survivors all retain one privilege: we don’t hurry anymore. Want to make me laugh? Tell me to hurry up.
When I hear “hurry,” my brain translates it to “go at a speed you’ll mess up whatever you’re doing!” Maybe it’s being on a heart-lung machine; maybe age, maybe it's only being six weeks in. But hurrying ain’t a club in my bag anymore.
It’s like in baseball when a player “hurried the throw” - probably an error.
Hope all is well in your world.
I haven't really noticed that my sternum is healing uneven.
Keep going strong and thanks for your update
Glad you're doing so well!
