Had my mastectomy on 2nd July, home on 3rd and was out and about 2/3 days later. Drain out 9 days later. I feel fine, doing all those things I did before my op. Spent alot of time looking at catalogues for bras/prothesis etc. Now just beginning to accept my new shape.
Saw my Consultant and Oncologist on 17th July and all seem to be well. The Consultant did say they found a rather large 50mm area of DCIS in removed tissue which would definitely turn nasty if nothing was done. No further treatment required although the Oncologiust suggested I follow the Gylcemic Index Diet and Exercise. First time I heard of this diet but the internet explains it all.
So thank you to everyone for their support and for this Forum. Believe you me, it has helped me tremendously during the last 7 months.
