Miraculous Healing Post Explant Surgery
Having previously had two breast surgeries that resulted in painful healing and recovery.
(Painkillers such as morphine, and codeine, and antibiotics.)
I wanted to try and go into my third and most extreme surgery, with an arsenal of things I could try to reduce the amount of pharmaceuticals I would need.
I randomly happened upon this arc4health, and was initially quite sceptical, but saw some positive reviews and thought it may be worth a try.
Started using the arc, 2 weeks before my surgery every day for 6 - 9 hours on my ankle -switching sides every day.
I noticed nothing much really, and was open minded but naturally sceptical of whether it would help me with this surgery.
When I think about it though, I had no anxiety going into the surgery, and before using the arc had been feeling extremely nervous and tearful. I do wonder if the arc helped with this?!
Surgery was with a general anaesthetic (propofil ), 3 hours under anaesthetic and 4 surgeons simultaneously working on me.
I came around and immediately put the arc on my arm (using the sticky pads provided).
I felt no pain, which the nurses said was due to the local anaesthetic.
The nurses did medication rounds every 3 hours, and encouraged me to keep on top of the pain with oral morphine.
I declined, and kept using the arc4health.
The only moment I felt excruciating pain, and sent the nurse off to fetch me oral morphine, I realised the arc had finished its 3 hour programme.
I quickly switched it back on. By the time the nurse came back, the pain was again completely manageable.
This device has saved me painkillers, and I strongly suspect antibiotics.
I left the hospital after 24 hours having taken not even a paracetamol, and this has continued during my recovery at home.
At my 2 week check, the surgeon and I both remarked how (surprisingly ) good the results look.
I had been told by 3 surgeons at consultation that I would look awful (one used the word deformed), and that I would need reconstruction within 12 months.
This is not the reality, and I am really happy with the end result so far.
I have a tendency to keloid scar with puckering , but this surgery my scars look flat and no redness or raised areas.
I am absoloutley convinced of the efficacy of the arc, and am recommending it to everyone I know !
