I ended up getting out of the hospital after 7 days. The 3-4 extra days in the hospital was due to the leaking lymph node.

Once I was released, I was placed on a 4 week low fat diet <30 grams of fat a day.

It has been almost 6 weeks since the surgery and at times, I am worried that the surgery made the pain worse. Dr Thompson and his assistants said that it could take around 8 weeks for the nerves to recover.

I hope so. I go back Feb 9 to have my follow up and to start Physical Therapy.
