@sassy3 I will be thinkinh of you tomorrow. I am now 10 days after the lumoectomy and honestly I was so scared of the day but as @bellbert said it is very busy and once there the anxiety passes. Going to sleep is weird but easy and really you just wake up next minute with no cancer in your boob! That was what was holding me that the sruff I found and that brought this nightmsre will be out! I ate so much in the recovery I was starving:)
@naughty_boob and @salbert thanks so much you are my protective angels. I had a bad week post surgery but I am out of that tunnel and onto a gracious wait for the final report. Fingers crossed for clear marfins and the continuity of clean nodes!
I feel stronger now, I go out and about every day. I had a coupke of days when I pushed myself too much and went out of breath but getting there now. I am.doing my exercises and they help but I still have to take Paracetamol by the clock and the armpit pulls from time to time, did many of you got that cording after lymph biopsy? I alsonreached my 10 days mark when I did not wet my steristrips - I have a bit of anxiety around taking the plasters out and seeing my new boobie. I think my exoerience was mainly bad because my wound bled when I arrived home post op. Other than that let’s see what treatment will I have. I set myself.for chemo radio and hormones but still hopefull that chemo will be spared oh dear.x
