SCANXIETY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

~ Friday....... THE DAY

First set of post op scans. CT of chest, abdomen & pelvis. Xrays of lungs and mammogram.

Deep breaths

Man what an awful week you have lined up. Don't get too anxious on the facial surgeries post op. Like the regular surgeries it will need time to heal. The swelling and wound site will fade over time and it is possible only you will know its there. It will be hard but you should be fine. On my first set of scans my surgeon called late the day of scans to say there was nothing there so I didn't have to dwell on the waiting. Hoping you have uneventful procedures and sending positive thoughts.
