Thanks all and am feeling ok but always on the anxious side have concerns..

Pete I am gonna mention the massage to my dr tomorrow...my homecare nurse also wrote a note recommending massage and a few other items as in pain control...meds ext....also noted a couple of white spots in my mouth which could easily be from eating and stitches coming out... fingers are crossed...she also noted that the dressing coming out of my packed incision is an odd color...so I think she has covered everything I was concerned about including temp and I don't have a sore throat anymore more side of neck like glandular pain into ear..

well must try to get sleep now as up early to travel to my doc and they made an appointment at 8:45 am...need to leave here by 6:30 or so... take care and good nite
