Dressings off day before yesterday. By yesterday evening couldn’t bear anything touching the wound. Sat in bed just now with a plastic bowl covering my left breast so that I can have the bed covers over me! Slept last night in a loose t-shirt after having taken brufen and paracetamol and a low dose Valium from when I had the news! Had a segmentectomy for stage 2 cancer with the nipple area taken away - have a purse string suture; lymph node clear. Until the dressings taken off I haven’t had much pain, more a heaviness and aching as a day progressed. Now I can’t bear anything touching the central wound. Last night my husband went to the supermarket looking for an ‘eye-bath’ which we thought might help inside a bra. He said all he found seemed too small, and brought baby bottle feeding nipples - seem the best thing at the moment, with the end cut off. It,s soft against my skin, but I’m just concerned about the pressure on the surrounding breast area with prolonged use. Any suggestions very welcome! Thanks xxxx
