I go for a post op appointment tomorrow and I wonder if he, or a staff member, will take out my stitches. I don't mind keeping them longer but am wondering what the purpose will be. What I want is to find out the pathology results and to find out why my arms and nose were messed up and why one breast took 1 hour to finish and the second took 3. I can't stand the mystery.It is probably just stitches, isn't it?
