I am now in my 3rd year post quadruple heart bypass. Though only 74 I lacked stamina and got tired easily. Now I have had sternum wires removed and feel a new woman: but sticking plaster was used in KL to which I am allergic, blisters, skin came off breasts. Also the surgeon did not know of female version of Heart Hugger, this abraded the wounds being designed for men so WARNING to any concerned in any way......
