Saw the nurse again today. I agree it does feel weird taking it off ! She said I was healing well, but has advised me to start massaging it myself and also to get lymphatic drainage massage if I can. I can also take my vest off from the 2nd July – but will have to wear the garment for another few weeks after that. No bruising and no pain, unless I poke it, then it’s a bit tender. She said I was still swollen. It’s looking better every time I see it – still a bit worried about the bottom bit as I may have some excess skin where I used to be quite fat about a year ago and my skin stretched a bit – but only time will tell !!
