SDLA SURGERY #2

Had the surgery again 2/8/2010 and today is post-op day 2. The new procedure was more traumatic on me than the first time around. Maybe because less anesthesia was used, maybe because I had scar tissue from the first time. Don't know. Besides the underarm swelling and some brusing the recovery is going well so far. I didn't have the numbness down my arm that happened the day of the last surgery, and I don't have the nerve pain down both arms like last time either. So far no erosion. No sweating noted so far but it was day 3 on a hot summer day before I noted any return of sweating. It is winter and cold now. For me that normally does not matter as my sweating is mostly anxiety produced anyway. I will keep posting as the days go by...
