Rose, so very glad all went well and you now have a clean bill of health! What a traumatic surgery! Do you now have the side benefit of no need to use deoderant on that side?
I'm sure Ruth is right about the IV. I be a lot of that weight is water. Try a week of Phase 1 to chase all that sugar (electrolite fluid) out of your system, and I bet the weight will drop right off!
Rose -- I am glad you hear you are OK. Did you have hidradinitis by any chance? I had what sounded like a similar surgery on both armpits about 8 years ago. But, mine did not require a skin graph. Anyway, hang in there!!!
Do you now have the side benefit of no need to use deoderant on that side? 
Glad you are back!
