Cystic

I went to the Dr. last week to find out that I have lymphedema and must wear compression wraps on my right hand and arm. I must also massage my right breast and arm in the direction of my lymphatic map to dissipate the swelling/fluid. Pain in the ass. I went for my thyroid ultrasound for my face. The lump that comes and goes on my right jaw is "cystic" according to the technician that conducted the ultrasound. So I have to wait until next week to get it interpreted by my Dr. I hope they remove whatever it is, it hurts. I rescheduled my plastics visit and I so wish I had not. I ripped my incision open again trying to get a stitch out myself. It is irritating and painful. Now I wait until the 26th for a visit. My face is swollen, my eyes are puffy, my vision is bad, and my gums are weird. I have horrendous abdominal air pockets that fire at will. I try not to be too far from home. My dogs are making me sick, it is hard to breath in this house. The puppy barked at Dorsey, scared the crap out of him. She is a 2-year-old Pit Bull. So, other than being swollen, puffy, irritated, gassy, wheezy and painful, I am really good. I feel good about being alive and well besides this crap. :-) I am sure I forgot something. More later. Happy Friday.
