Thank you Denise! I’ve already regained a lot of mobility in my hand and the numbness is barely there. That first day really got to my head because no one talked about that particular side effect. Now I’m in rest mode the best I can. I have a 4 month old, so as much rest as possible. Thank you for your encouragement.

Wow, a 4-month old. Life is full of paradoxes! There are many side effects that I had to discover that one doesn't think about. In the beginning with surgery and treatment, it's all I could handle but we do go on living our lives and incorporating the changes. One was that all my tops fit differently. I could have reached out to people and talked more but now I can share my experiences on this Forum. If you ever need encouragement, I am alwasy here.
