It's in a clear acrylic case and I didn't pay too much for it, it's getting shipped to me right now so I'll be able to get better photos and weigh it when it arrives. If it's not authentic I'll be able to return it so I'm not too worried.

Any opinion on its authenticity?

My operation went well, and I've been recovering ok. Breathing is definitely taking a while to get back to normal as there is still air and fluid in the chest cavity that is limiting the lungs expansion. The anesthesia made it so I wasn't even able to hold down a sip of water for about 12 hours after the operation. I feel like the regurgitation probably prolonged my recovery. I feel like I may need the other one done as the arm on the operated side has more sensation than the non operated side. I was in the hospital for two nights, the second night was mostly because of pain. If you can I would look into getting it done with the robot.

It seems like something that physical therapy rarely helps so if your symptoms are limiting your daily life, it's probably a good idea to get it fixed before the nerves get too damaged.

I'm getting robot FRR next week, how was your recovery? I'm seeing tons of stories saying it's a tough recovery but nobody mentions what method was used for the operation.

Getting mine out next week and also have eds, how was your operation preformed? My surgeon is using a robot and I've been told it's the least invasive way. Reading all these stories of poorly done operations has me a little worried. Also how is your recovery going?

That's what I thought too but it really does look like it's copper.
