Bubble, bubble, toil and trouble

Well, the abcess is continuing to be a pain in my ass. Last week it closed up, but a blister formed where liquid was trying to escape. The doctor opened it up yesterday and it gushed everywhere. Like all down my arm and onto the floor. He put in a stitch so it can heal.

At first he thought there was a defect in the expander. But when he opened it up, it looks like the liquid had pooled under the aladerm. He took a culture and told me not to eat or drink until we got the results back. Just in case we had to operate.

Got culture back, everything is fine. Thank God. I just can't stand the thought of another surgery right now.
