So happy to hear the good news!!!

I hadn't seen you post for a while so I am glad to catch up with you. I highly recommend those climb the wall with your mastectomy arm exercises and agree that moving around as much as you can is better than just staying in bed. After a few months of recovery, another good arm exercise is a yoga pose (I forget its name) but it is the one where you put one hand over your head behind your back and try to grasp your other hand from behind your back. It took ME YEARS...no joke to have the mastectomy arm actually reach the other, but now I can do it just fine...never had lymphodema in all these years...10 since my surgery this November and I did those exercises faithfully.

Congrats and keep on keeping strong,
Gina
