Operation went pretty well, surgeon said that it was easier than the previous times that he's operated as it hadn't been left too long and the cysts weren't too firmly attached.
There is some neurological defecit, but he is fair;y ertain that it is only due to inflamation and bruising and that it will improve over the next week.
I have full movement, just some numbness and pins and needles in my hands, and a very weak grip. Can't hold a pen very well, need to use a straw when drinking, using cutlery is a bit tricky and fastenings like buttons and my bra are impossible.
Should be home on Monday.

I'm home - and I still haven't told "himself" yet . I'll tell him when he notices the dressing on my back.
Hands are getting better, can just about hold a pen now, but the writing is terrible.
