Feeling low and alone today

Thinking of you Jane 61. Hope all goes well xx

Good luck today Jane!
I comment on all sorts of different threads, don’t know if I have in this one but you’re all familiar to me anyway :slight_smile:
Julia, I’m sure you will have healed nicely in time for your Florida holiday, I was amazed how quickly I healed from my mastectomy and reconstruction, node removal and drain removals. I’ve got a couple of other issues such as seroma build up and mild lymphodeima but it hasn’t delayed me starting chemotherapy, so no one is concerned about it particularly.
I’m going to look up the knitted knockers today. My reconstructed boob is nice and full (of seroma as well as silicone!!!) whereas my natural boob is quite flat. My surgeon thinks my implant may have moved and when my treatment is over it’s likely she’ll operate again either to move it or put in a different size/shape. Anyway, the point being I’m wondering if there’s something I could wear with my natural boob to equal me up in the meantime!
A lot of you seem to be having / have had lymph node biopsies I didn’t have - or not aware I had! I had a core needle biopsy because one of my lymph nodes had shown up as misshapen on the ultrasound, then when I had surgery they removed 9 nodes and on testing found that 2 were cancerous. Maybe that’s why I didn’t have extra tests? Because they had found one anyway to begin with? It’s a question I keep meaning to ask but never remember when I see my surgeon (who I won’t now see for 4mths now!!! I see that at progress!!)
Good luck to you all in your different stages of tests, surgery and recovery! And also good luck for your post surgery test results. I’ll keep dropping in to check up on you all :slight_smile: xxx
