Cheers Chorlton.

Hope things are going well for you by the way.

Just managed to get through, spoke to his receptionist. Levick's on holiday!

She assured me that everything was ok; as long as I got the bandage back on quickly enough, which I did.

Just started getting a bit more pain under the right armpit, where the 'lump' of swelling is. Had some Ibuprofen, so it should cool down a bit. This bandage really is uncomfortable. Can't wait to get it off and put the vest on.

Three days and counting!

Thats good news mate, didnt think there would be a problem but its always good to make sure.  Its nice to get out the bandages, although you feel more vulnerable. I feel im getting better daily now with more movement and less stiffness.

[AJP]

Sounds good RRB.

I know what you mean about being less vulnerable in the bandages. It's just the restriction that's getting to me. I can live with it until Thursday though, no probs.

Quick question: Did you have a full shower/bath the day you took the bandages off, or did you wait? I'm craving a nice bath, but I don't want to do things too soon. 1 week post-op is ok, surely?

Thanks.

I only have a shower at home so thats what i had, a quick one too.  Dunno was just worried about no bandage and no compression vest, it may sound silly but i just felt like man boobs would pop back out if i didnt get into the vest quickly.

[AJP]

No, doesn't sound silly at all. I'm sure I'll be much the same!
