Hi Sharon, good luck with your mastectomy. I had bilateral at end of April. Probably most useful thing I took with me was my mobile! Contact with the outside world was very important. Also some nice smellies - I was convinced I smelled bad and made me feel better to have nice smelling things at hand. The advice to put the drainage bags inside another bag is very good - makes life a lot easier especially if you have more than one. Good luck and get as much rest as you can cos you’ll need it!!
