Hi Kaz, I didn't drive the car for a couple of weeks, and didn't lift anything above my shoulder for about a month. I'm right handed and my dissection was on my right side too, and it is a it frustrating. My breast care nurse gave me some fantastic exercises, and this helps reduce the fluid in my arm, so it all works eventually. At the very least it teaches you patience and perseverance, lots of it. Keep lugging away there, Tracey B ??
