Re: Oh come on now....
After my surgery I had a huge infection in my scar tissue. It was very painful and I worried about it a lot. Then my oncologist told me that having an infection in the area actually may be beneficial, because all that immune system activity mops up free floating cancer cells. He explained it in a more scientific way, but it is 13 years ago and I've been allright since. Had to have some benign cysts aspirated too, but that went ok too. It was painful, though.
Hope you look back on this in 13 years and think - like I do - I was in a heck of a lot of pain, but I'm fine now.
