It’s so nice to hear from others in the same situation as me. I have the same numbness, which is starting to wake up, It’s very tender. And I was just telling my husband that this lump doesn’t seem to go down, but he says it’s really not as swollen. I’m over 7 weeks into recovery and still have a lot of nerve pain. I had pleural effusion so they did a thorcentnesis. I thought that would help the pain…..not so much. I’m still sleeping sitting up in bed, and I still have a cough. Does anyone cough all the time?
