    Your explanation of your arm lift surgery was great ! I had this done on August 1st and wish I had your gift for describing my experience. The only problem I have is some swelling above both elbows and very HARD tissue inside my incisions . Doctor says everything looks great but - don't they all? I am happy you are doing so well! Cheers!!

    Going into week 9 and arms feel hard inside - nerves feel strange at times- back of arms - still numb--scar great on left side -not as good on right.Under armpit is very red still.There is some edema still around elbow area and directly above.Other than THAT---I guess it is normal. ???How does the Cordran(?) tape work? I purchased some gel for scars that glued my arms to my shirt--THAT WAS FUN!

    I must reserve judgement until swelling goes down . Third week and I feel there is light at the end of the tunnel!!
