Gig with the new year
How are you feeling now after your operation last November?
I pray that all is well!
Have a blessed day

I had staples used for me 9 industrial sized staples to be exact I didn't feel them but the area was a bit tender and irritated for a couple days and I had stitches to many to count but never felt anything

You might want call your Neurologist and ask to be seen. Or if not him or her call your M.D.
Get their opinion
Have a blessed morrow
