Hi Angi, You will truly be in my pray, in hoping that this next surgery will do it once and for all. I just spoke to a Massage Thearpy's who's specialty is scar tissue/and Lympdema. And she seems to think in my case that since iceing my breast seems to help, that it is just still very inflamed due to the surgery and grafting. She has been doing this treatment for over 25yrs, and she said that if it was cc or Lympdema that it would not respond to ice. So that was good news, I'm suppose to go into see her for a complete evalution for insurance purposes some time next week. She told me to just keep iceing it every 10mins, and to do as the dr. said not too much activey because the grafting is still trying to attach to my body, she said sometime that can take up to 3 mos. I was happy to get this good news, but wanted to die because that means that I still can not drive, which means that I am still stuck in the house.   Well, I guess you can't have it all, right! Take care honey and make sure you let me know how things are shaping up for you, OK. Stepaheda
