If a person overstays their period of admission for one year or more, then they are barred from re-entering the United States for 10 years. I am not sure why the U.S. Embassy issued you a visa, but there is always a risk they might not admit you as a non-immigrant.

Are you married to a U.S. citizen, or are you just planning on visiting the U.S. for a vacation?
