teacher 36 Posted June 25, 2014 I am having brachioplasty surgery on July 1st. I started thinking about it being a week away and questions kept running through my mind so I was glad to find this post. I am nervous but also ready to be able to wear cute, cool clothes in the summer and ditch the hot 3/4 length sleeve shirts. My husband has to go back to work on the July 2nd. Will I be able to stay by myself the day after surgery if I don't have to lift or reach for anything? I am a teacher and will have to start getting my classroom put back together around the 2nd week in August. Will I be able to put up bulletin boards and move light objects by this time? Thanks for all of the info! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Smwtwins 29 Posted June 27, 2014 I don't know about arms but my tummy and breasts itch. Lots of tingly sensations. Hopefully it will subside soon. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
