Good luck with your operation today ! I have my fingers crossed for clear margins and no lymph node involvement. I hope you don't hurt too much after, I was lucky, I didnt even need paracetamol . Best wishes to you x

Good luck.

Thank you and it was similar I just needed that pillow under the arm that was a god send x

Thank you and apart from some mad skin reaction I am definitely on the mend ️‍ 

Thank you x

Oh did you get a reaction to the glue from the skin cover thing they use when they operate ? Not sure what it's called. My chest came up with what looked like dermatitis and my right arm was a mass of tiny bumps, shoulder to wrist. I looked a tad unsightly for about five days. I'm glad it wasn't too bad for you. Next step is the result wait, good luck !

It’s on my chest and neck and looks like severe sun burn my initial thought was the titanium clips but the breast care nurse said it’s more likely the antiseptic scrub they use before surgery just at my gp as the antihistamine I’m taking is not working and neither are the cold compresses. My skin is on fire and I want to scratch it off

Oh poor you, mine didn't itch or burn just looked unsightly. I never gave a thought to it being the scrub !  Hope the doctors can give you something to calm it down. Cancer, the gift that keeps on giving !

So the gp has given me stronger antihistamines and advised calamine lotion and yes the gift that keeps on giving well it can have this back I don’t want it
