Creepy Crawlies

Ok, I'm at the creepy Crawlies stage, the nerves are starting to wake up in my armpit and arm. It's weird ....

my drain output is dropping by about ten mls a day, so it should be out soon... I hate not being able to do anything... I've been up and about, but my arm starts hurting and it's too hot to go outside, I don't want to faint or anything!

im getting bored and I can't draw! I'm an artist and it's driving me crazy I can't paint or draw. Let alone do much else... 

Friday seems so long away, but I know it will be here quicker than I think... 

Oh well soldier on!

    Hi, my surgery was at the end of October. Drain fell out on day 7!! Still have numb spots in axilla, but feeling lucky hat I missed that creepy crawly stage. 

    Hang in there. Waiting for results can feel like forever, but it will soon be here. 

    Take care, Lyn

    Those creepy crawlies will last for a while, at least mine did, I had my op in October and i'm still numb and get tingling feeling.  I tried and had my drain in as long as possible, 2 weeks was the max.  Yes it is boring but make sure you do the exercises they gave you they do help.

    By the way what was your result???
