Hi! @jeaniem:

I am so sorry for what you've been through for the past 4 weeks:( My prayers went out for you upon reading your post...

I am not any expert, but the symptoms that you described worried me! Is it possible for you to see your surgeon today, or at least send your care team some message via patients' portal? For as far as I know, this kind of procedure should only cause some minor swelling, bruising, or tenderness at the site, which usually resolves within 7 to 10 days. weeks is a long time to endure suffering!

Best wishes for you on the journey ahead!
