Hello everyone. I have been reading all your stories with great interest and a lot of sadness as well, there are so many brave people out there. I had my Mastectômy six months ago and was in hospital having my op at 10 am and was home at 4.30 I couldn't believe how easy it all went. However I have been going back to the hospital about every couple of weeks to have drainage done from the wound area wondered if anyone can tell me how long this will go on for? As soon as I have had it done it starts to fill up again into a hard lump! I am worrying about it!
