Jennifer's Guestbook

Hi Jen! So nice to meet you, thanks for visiting my journal. I don\'t know how you handle working full time so soon after surgery, I couldn\'t have done it, am currently working part time. It sounds like you have a busy schedule with work and your physical thereapy, just remember that you need to take time to rest and maybe slow down so you get your strenght back, but am sure by now you know when to slow down. It\'s only been a few months since your surgery, take time to rest and recover. Patricia De Leon. You can find me on facebook under my esperanto alias \"Bonan Nokton\" send me a friend request :)

Glad to have helped....feel free to contact me anytime....Hope you feel better soon. Jamie PS. My shoulder and back were both killing me this week and I saw my massage therapist on Monday. She worked out allot of knots and bad places and I feel so much better. Not nearly the pain that I had been having. You might give that a try sometime after your swelling gets better.

Hi Jennifer....so sorry about your problems. I wanted to encourage you about the lymphatic drainage. My massage therapist does it regularly when I have issues...she does it when I need it in my regular massage. It makes a HUGE difference and it is actually very relaxing...you just lay there and they do the rest. I am thinking it will be the same procedure that I have had and it is quite relaxing. I am amazed that I can feel the lymph movement....weird but cooll! Good luck and I hope you get to feeling better. I have had issues with my shoulder and shoulder blades and back ever since OHS. . That is why I am seeing a massage therapist to help me recover. I do think things are better since she has worked on me. I had another surgery on a broken arm a few years ago and she did the lymph drainage too on my arm and it made a huge difference. Good luck and keep us posted. Blessings. Jamie Todor

Jennifer, I\'m a DD. I had a sternotomy. I woke up with an great surgical bra. I also asked for 2nd from nurse to bring home. I wore 24/7 first 4 weeks as the surgeon requested. I recently purchased the Ahhh bra from HSN.COM, (Rhonda Shear). It works great so much better than all the others I purchased at stores. I wear it 24/7 still....5 weeks post op. If i don\'t wear bra my chest hurts. Hope this helps. Janis
