I had a triple by-pass 16 1/2 years ago(1996). Give it another month or two. You'll be fine. For me, I felt about 10 times better after recovery than before the surgery. I STILL better now at nearly 66 than I did at 49. I did have some lingering irritation of the pericardial sac that lasted a few months, but naproxin sodium took good care of it.
In 2002, I had a bypass on my left leg as well. It's a pleasure to be able to walk more than 100 feet without pain. The only thing that bothered me with that operation - as with the leg where they took out the veins for the bypasses - was wearing that awful full length elastic stocking they make you wear to keep your leg from swelling up too much.
With that and the brain surgery I had last July, I'd sooner go through all three than to pass another kidney stone!
