6 days post op and I have yet to put on make up or fix my hair, I just take my bath, wash my face and let my hair dry naturally!! (Very scary)

I have a call into the surgeons office, about a problem with my arm where my IV was at (in the bend of my arm) and the vein has swollen and I can't straighten my arm completely out! So I'm hoping they will take a look at it today!!

Hope all went well for you and they looked at your arm..

I ended up having an ultrasound and it ended up being a blood clot in a superficial vein in my forearm!!!

Kim

Btw I'm glad I did get semi ready, make up done but wearing a hat! Bc I ended up at PCP office then off to radiology and then sent to the ER!!

Oh no.. Hope things get better for you!

What did they do to help you with the blood clot? I hope your arm is feeling better! A little scary!!

So sorry to hear about your trouble. Maybe in the next day or so you can go to the salon and get your hair done. I am a hairstylist and at our salon we take walk ins as well as our regulars. I have had many ladies who were not my reg. clients come in for a shampoo and style after surgery. Sometimes there reg stylist can't fit them in, and they always leave saying how awesome it was to get a good shampoo/scalp massage. Having there hair styled professionally makes them feel so much better. Anyway, just a suggestion that might make you feel better.
