Smile Hello

I'm brand new to this board today, but I was surprised no one at least said "hi" yet...wanted to throw in my welcome and hello

I had rib removal and scalenectomy 4 days ago with amazing outcome so far...posted about it today if you want to read up. There are so many stories of bad surgery outcomes, I feel it's important to report the positive outcomes also. I must caution, however, that my symptoms could still return to varying degrees if scar tissue forms...I'll keep you posted on that progress.

Hope you are doing well!
Holly

Welcome.
Be prepared for all manner of changes post op, the pain meds can mask such alot! You may well feel quite abit of discomfort after you ween off the post op meds???? Just be careful with lifting bags over 5lbs in weight as this can cause alot of stress on the scar tissue!
Take it easy!!!!!!!
