How many open heart surgeries have you had?

[Star007]

I was wondering if anyone on this site had more than 3 open heart surgeries, specifically in which the sternum is opened up. If you don't mind me asking, what were the surgeries for? I have had 2 ohs and 2 shunts. I have complex congenital heart conditions and I know I will require additional OHS eventually.

Thanks
