So glad your surgery went well I'm due my clearance Mon 7th just be glad to get it over with.  I don't know  about treatment yet they said I need to wait for results. Any who you take care and keep us updated on your progress. Any tips greatly appreciated. Xx

Did my reply come through to you? I can't see it...xx

No reply came through sorry xxx hope your OK 

Don't know what happened there...all I can say is after the initial pain after waking, once that was sorted by the nurse it's all been ok. I was given oramorph to bring home but asked for diclofenac also, as after my first surgery this combination worked brilliantly to keep the pain under control.  I alternate the two. Start your gentle exercise when you get home and rest, rest, rest. Don't be fooled into thinking you can do more than you think because the pain is masked by meds. The drain bottle isn't nice but it's doing a job. If in doubt or worried call your bc nurse, they're brilliant.  Good luck on Monday lovely. Much love  

Thanks so much. I'm starting to get nervous now. Going for a pcr covid test today and then locking myself in the house till Monday I've got a bit of a cold hope it goes by then. I will let you know how I get on xx

Hi hope your feeling well. Just a quick update. Had my clearance on the 7th stayed in overnight due to pain home the next day. Drain fell out it had only drained 50mls in total. Yesterday I woke with a swelling under my scar quite tender to touch feels hot. I have spoken to the breast nurse going in tomorrow she may need to drain it. I've had my next appointment through it's not until the 23rd March feels like ages away. Have you started your treatment. 

Hope your doing OK x

Hiya. I recovered well from my clearance, very painful but that's was 3 weeks +2 today. Just had my results today.  4 of 11 lymph nodes had cancer so I'm now having chemotherapy,  15 or 20 radiotherapy and biophosphonates treatment.  Pretty fed up just now but has to be done xx hope you get on OK xx 

I'm glad your treatment has started there's light at the end of the tunnel. Hopefully the side effects won't be bad. I'm keeping my fingers crossed for you.  Please keep in touch xxx

It hasn't started yet. I've not even seen the oncologist.  I've no idea about anything just now, just going on what my surgeon has told me. Fingers crossed for better news for you xx

I've got a month yet before I see the surgeon again for results but as I said please keep in touch I feel like we are in the boat somhow. I feel out of control about everything but I'm sure we can get through this sending big hugs xxx

Same, I feel I've been left second guessing a lot of things. It's crap and I feel crap about the whole thing. Thank goodness I've got so much support because if I hadn't I'd have had a breakdown by now, I'm sure xx much love  

Will it be OK if I send you a friend request on this site. I understand what you mean, I feel like there's people making decisions for me and not including me in it. I've always been the one in the family that makes the decisions. Lol makes me sound like a control free. If I'm honest I'm just scared not that I'd tell my husband or kids lol. Sending hugs xx
