My skin was very tight, red and very warm to touch. (drains were out). I was told to keep moisturizing it and it really helped. I wasn't doing that in the beginning cuz I just did not like touching it. (gross its so hard) but it really helped. I would try to keep my arm elevated at night for drainage and move my fingers around and never had any problems. Just a few suggestions. Hope it helps. Man girl you have had such a hard time with this reconstruction. I read an article on Suzanne Somers over the weekend and she did stem cell reconstruction. It looked amazing. They liposuctioned fat from her stomach and injected into her breast and made a new one. She did not have a mastectomy but she said that she lost 70% of her breast from the lumpectomy. It is still in the trial phase but it sounds great to me and alot less painful. I think the concerns are cancer cells in your own stem cell. Keep us posted. I am still getting the fills and cannot wait for the exchange. I looks like about 2 more months for me. Will be praying for you. Good luck. Darlene
