Finally home. The great news is the cancer was isolated and I won't need chemo. The bad news is I woke up from anesthesia screaming about my shoulder on my "good" arm. It caused a tear in my rotator cuff and set off a horrific flare which was compounded by iv's and blood draws and blood sugar testing. My stupid, stupid self forgot to ask for a small needle at admittance and ended up with an 18 gauge for 6 days... You can imagine the swelling, pain a d bruising. I had a satellite ganglion block Fri which calmed it all down and I'm hoping it will stay calm and the arm function will improve with time.

Thank you all for your well wishes once again. I know I've become less active this past year but this forum continues to be an ongoing place to turn to those who can only understand what we deal with everyday, let alone when the you know what hits the fan.
