I just had one side done and was more than ready to come home on day two, although I had to stay so the graft could be checked hourly. When I did get home I felt terrific but looked a little weird because of the swelling. I did lateral massage on it and the results were fast and amazing. Don't sweat this one. It is a piece of cake compared to radiation and chemo. You will do fine and like the rest of us, wonder why you worried so much.
