Mums mastectomy

Hi all

I am hoping someone will have some advice. My 70 year old mum with recently diagnosed dementia was diagnosed in october with grade 2 her positive duct cancer. She had a mastectomy on Wednesday but seema to be incredibly tired today drifting in and out of sleep and a little unsteady on her feet. She is not a great eater and only weighs 7 stone 10. I am worried as yesterday she seemed alot better. washed dressed and awake all day. Is this normal. I'm terribly worried 

Thnk you in advance 

  • Hi,

    Have you got the out of hours number for your mums breast clinic, I might be in the booklet that you were initially given or at your Pre op, could be worth giving them a call even for Reassurance. I think call them just in case she may have an infection if you can't get them maybe ring 101. I only had a lumpectomy but I remember them saying too ring them if anything seemed unusual 
     

    I hope she feels better soon xx
