I finished my week of antibiotics with no improvement in the cellulitis near my lymph node incision. The surgeon considered a biopsy, but decided to let me try 10 days of another med. It that doesn't completely take care of it, then we'll biopsy to rule out a reocurrance. I'm stretching to try to maintain my range of motion because it seems to want to tighten up again. Just when you think you're about recovered........well you know the rest :-)
Take care - Diane

    Hello Diane,
    I hope this is all that is wrong, and the other med helps you. I will pray that there is no reoccurance as well. We have a great team here,and you probably already know. I am just getting back on my feet myself!!! However, I will pray with my whole heart for you.
    God Bless
    Love Cathy

    Thanks Cathy, So far, no improvement, but there's still time. I know what you mean about the support here. I've taken advantage of it for the past year time and time again. Peace - Diane

    There is a wonderful book that can help you maintain your range of motion. It is "Essential Exercises for Breast Cancer Survivors" by Amy Halverstadt and Andrea Leonard. Sometimes it is for sale on Ebay under the topic of breast cancer. It is filled with a full range of exercises to keep you limber and wonderful pictures, information and illustrations. Hope it helps, Susie
