Hi Daised, I am so glad you are being treated so quickly I was diagnosed at the end of Jan with HER -Oestrogen + 25mm IDC and after being put on tamoxifen I had my surgery 2 weeks ago. I had a WLE with SLNB…as has been said the scar from the lymph node removal hurts!!! Much more than anticipated. Only in the last couple of days have I had any issues with the breast and it’s now shooting pain’s presumably as it’s healing. I am a teacher and signed off for another week then may consider a phased return.I was advised not to go back to work, from my consultant, until my results but they are not coming until 25th May; nearly 5 weeks post op. I’m hoping to get away with radiotherapy which will again mean an impact on my work…. Incredibly frustrating but I will be better for healing fully before trying to go back to full time. Only my story…we all heal differently…but wanted to share from a 2 week post op status! Take care…you are in a whirlwind of tests and treatment…. Be kind to yourself x
