Remove your bandages tomorrow and put

a new dressing on every day there after

I am still dealing with not being able to bend

and maybe I do have candida issues

but I want to get through this first

I am itching already and cannot wait

to get this huge bandage off my breast

My surgeon said he had me on an antibiotic in

the operating room and will see what antibiotic

I might need when the culture results are in

I thanked my surgeon and told him when I awoke from surgery

All the pain is totally gone

I think he was very surprised,

I am glad you spoke with your surgeon ! I know that

makes you feel better. Having post op instructions

is always a plus.

Did he say how things looked ? Did he take pics ? ?

Was there infection in there ?

When you feel up to it, please fill me in....

Hope you continue to feel better and better !

Sandy,

Thank God you are through this surgery and it will be your last one,

hopefully!

I am glad to hear the pain is gone. That is good news. It's good

that they are doing a culture to see what antibiotic to put you on--

they shouldn't rule out anti-fungals either. I've experienced

doctors who do the shoot and miss thing, giving me the wrong drug

because they made an assumption that proved wrong through culturing

LATER.

Rest up,

Patty
