Hi to all my lovely friends on this site…how are you all doing?
I have finally had my operation…“right sided areolar duct excision”… you may remember, I have lung issues and my op was postponed due to a bad lung infection. After a course of antibiotics, they operated this Monday. I was so nervous about the anaesthetic - the anaesthetist told me that although I wasn’t the most nervous patient he has seen in his career, I certainly was the most nervous one of the day… don’t know why I made this fuss- one minute , the young nurse told me to get on to the table, the next minute the anaesthetist was there with the needle and then I heard my name "heather, you’re in recovery "
Home the same evening, to a freshly made bed,… New duvet and all (courtesy of my lovely daughter in law), fridge full of food (courtesy of daughter) …anyway, daughter stayed with me for 2 nights.
I have no pain at all…went to wound clinic…healing well,… seeing Surgeon on 31st for follow-up and results. Post-op, he told me (as he always has), he did not see anything sinister, but only biopsy results will confirm (Pappiloma?). He told me that I will have a slight deformity of the breast…the nipple will recede. Who cares?
i am not allowed to drive for 2 weeks - depending for lifts on family and friends.
I fancy a nice spicy lamb biriyani tonight, so I will ask my daughter to pick me some from the local Indian takeaway.
I have been checking in on all you brave, sweet ladies…some are having a hard time, I know. BE BRAVE AND FIGHT THE FIGHT ,!!!
Love and thanks for everything
Heather xxxx
