Over the last few days, my left arm, which was the main problem, has started to ache & my fingers ache a lot. Also got that deep ache sensation between high my shoulder blades again that I had post-op.

I also still have that lump in the throat sensation, which can be nauseating at times, especially when I'm doing the chin-on-chest & head back exercises. I'm 8 & half weeks post-op.

I presume all this is to be expected, gardening or not & not to be worried about?
