I remember well when I first started this adventure being released from the hospital and immediately experiencing a lot of issues. We called my Cardiologist who blew me off and told me to wait until my appointment a month hence. My wife got so worried she took me to out General Practionioner who to make a long story short called the Cardiologist after examining me and demanded he see me the next day. The first words out of his mouth when I saw him the next day were I can't hold your hand all the time. The second words were OMG, I went back into surgery the next morning.
Yes absolutely this could just be the normal healing process, and you will get to the point where you can distinguish what's important and what's not with time, but, be persistent and if you find a doctor is ignoring you, find another. They are your employees, without patients there'd be no need for doctors. You said something that really caught my attention...I have a chart on my refrigerator with a list of symptoms to watch for. One is the feeling something is just not right (known as Malaise) , feeling uneasy. Point taken?

Hi Everyone
I am 81 years old and had a triple by pass in January 2016 and have experienced a pulling in my chest since the surgery.It is not painful but the feeling is more pronounced when I am active like bike riding,playing tennis,chores around the house etc.I had a stress test,ekg's,echo cardio gram and last week a ct scan which all were fine.In addition to the feeling in my chest I just don't feel right.My doctor says my heart is strong and I should continue being active.Im starting to believe everyone thinks I'm making this up.Maybe I need a therapist.I would appreciate your thoughts.
Thank you
