Default 5 months post scalenectomy

I woke up from my surgery crying because I did not think it helped. The first month I could barely look at my husband because we spent SO much money on the surgery and I thought not only did it not help, but I might be worse.

After 3 full months the nerves started to calm and I feel sooooooo much better! I can't believe how much better. I have a hard time even trying to understand the amount of pain I was in. I couldn't even think about doing the dished with out taking pain meds.
It's 5 months later now and I am doing very well. It's not perfect- but manageable, tolerable and I'm physically fit.

Please let me know if you have any questions because if you are on the fence amout surgery, I now wish I had done mine sooner.

Best to all
