Sherry asked.
The mushy bulge has hardened some (like cement LOL) I am glad that the
mushy has "reconnected".
Here we are almost 5 weeks after the surgery and bulge still swollen,
black and blue, and more pain than I started with.
This week I thought maybe the itching was a good sign (healing), but I
realized it's just the elasticized wrap that I was putting on it causing
the itching. Still getting the electric shock/brush pain. Worse the "lean
on" pain.
my monitor's so small and eyesight troubles, I have to lean in, so I need
an arm to lean on while I read and reply, so it's a problem. At this
point, I figure I might as well have stayed with the original lump and
pain !
Oh well, we'll see what happens in another month or so.
Next I see a doctor I'll ask what he thinks.
Thanks for asking Sherry,
Hugs

Hi J,
I am sorry to hear that you have had such a poor outcome from the surgery.
That is so disappointing! Let's hope that time is what is needed and your
arm will end up being just fine.

J,
Ouch!!!!! I am sorry that you are having more problems since having the
lump removed. Hopefully everything will be back to better than new very
soon.

Hugs,
Sherry
