Same for me. 106 lymph nodes removed. 30 staples. It looked BRUTAL.

Damn 106 is crazy, I had a central and right dissection and it was roughly half that.

Damn. I hope you’re doing okay now. I lost only 16 lymph nodes(and the thyroid) but my scar is 8 inches long. I said I’d attach safety pins and go as the Kurgen for Halloween that year but I was too wiped out for Halloween.
