Just had the rest of my staples out, no painkillers still sore but less disorientating. The nurse was great we had a good laugh and she cleaned up the incision line really well. It looks good now, Jean thinks its shrunk to about 12-14 inches now, a sign that the swelling is subsiding. Noticed I have lost weight off my forearms and wrists. Absolutely shattered now going to have something to eat and then a sleep before lunch.
