well its tuesday and all is well!! i was able to come home on monday. my house never looked so good. the pain was not as bad as i had anticipated. i had my last pill on sat nite. i wasnt in pain only uncomfortable. asked for tylonel but nurse would only give me percacet. i only took 1 but it helped. havnt needed any since. my arm is still numb in the back. my fingers have been tingling and sometimes numb although its getting better. to cough, laugh or clear my throat really hurt my back and chest wall. it has gotten better. if i press my back against a wall and put a pillow on my chest it helps alot. i have a 3 inch scar in my arm pit and a small scar under it where they put a drainage tube. right now the only comfortable way to sleep is on my back. my right side still falls asleep. i cant wait to be able to sleep on my side. to be able to talk with someone who understands is awesome. thank all of you who were thinking of me. i was also thinking of my cyber friends!! love you all
