this is not an easy subject...it depends on what the bypass is...sometimes you still have a tube to breath thru for a few days after sometimes not... where the incision is the cutting of the chest and bone is very painfull...the surgery it self you will most likely not even remember going to the surgery room and introduced to the staff in the room...or recovery...thats why you get a signed thank you card from the staff who took care of you cause you will have no clue...
