You've presumably got your sternum held together with staples and it'll take a few weeks for that to knit. Pumping and squeezing wouldn't be a good idea until then.

Re: heart surgery and UP piping
I suppose it depends strongly on the setup (and the pressure-tightness) of your set. Anyway: Gute Besserung!

Safe and speedy recovery to you, and yes, be careful! Much better to play more later than hurt yourself now. And happy mending to you too, mike spencer.

I'd say just worry about recovering and get back on your feet, the pipes will always be there
I wish you a speedy recovery
