CaliKelly - if you're still here, thanks so much for all the help in the past! I'm feeling pretty good and finally cleared for the gym. I have conflicting thoughts on what, if any, restrictions I have. My plastic surgeon says no restrictions. My physical therapist says nothing heavier than 10 lbs without my sleeve (no lymphedema, but did have four nodes out). My gym owner doesn't want me boxing yet (but my PT says it's a great thing for me). I've also heard no push ups ever, no pull ups ever, maybe no lat pulldowns. Ropes OK or no?

I know that you have the experience on both ends (patient and exercise professional) and am hoping you can give me some guidance. I have had lat flap on the left, implants on both. What would your guidance be for me?

Hope all is well!

Jennie
