Surgery on Friday went well, at least I think so. If I talked to the doctor after surgery, I have no memory of it. Pete says that he told them it went well and everything was good.
The large lump on my left chest area was dying fatty tissue. He took out most of it, but said that if he took it all, there would be an indent and he didn't want that. This worries me to be honest. The Lump must be directly on my muscle and it presses when I try to exercise my chest. It would actually shoot pain up through my neck and make that muscle pretty sore. But I guess I need to trust that this surgery fixed most of the problems.
He also decided to fix the ugly scar and take the sebaceous cyst on my chest. The thing is like a cat and has multiple lives. Every surgeon has said that they got it all out. Let's hope that he got it all this time.
I'm back to my back really hurting in the morning from the way that I must be sleeping. The pain from the surgery sites wakes me up at night and I have to take another pain pill. I'm trying to go without during the day and today is the first day back to working after surgery. I'm cutting it short at 4 hours. But I was supposed to have a full day tomorrow and Wednesday. I'm not sure that I'm up to that and hopefully my co-workers understand this.
I feel like I took 2 steps forward in recovery and could do lots of things and feel pretty good and now I'm back to limited motions, pain and soreness.
