Hi JLD,

I had a right side mastectomy on Tuesday, so you and I are at similar stages. I’m really pleased your sentinel node was clear- I wasn’t given any information about mine, so will find out at my next appointment. 

I have dissolvable stitches covered with a thin clear dressing. I had a drain but it was removed today, which has left me feeling more comfortable. I’m not sleeping well, but I’m sure that will improve in time.

I hope you are feeling ok today. I’m feeling pretty good, but very tired now as I went out for a walk.

Take care xx

how you doing is it this week you get results from operstion ? Hope all is well lovely love Lara xx 

Hi Lara

Yes this Friday it’s such a waiting game. I thought when they said the lymph nodes were clear that was the end of the worrying. But now the results of the HERS 2 could show that it’s a recurring cancer so that’s been a huge shock to me . I have tried to stay away from mr Google as I have a tendency to be a catastrophiser. So my knowledge of what could or may happen is head in the sand .Facts eg results are the way I’m dealing with things, day by day results as opposed to the maybes.

I hope all is going well for you my knowledge at the moment of my cancer is that it’s invasive lobular breast cancer hormone receptive.

sending love and good vibes .To you .

Yes jld 

it’s a rollercoaster for sure that happened to me also all lymph nodes looked clear then after my operation my results show that there was a teeny trace in one node my world fell apart I was assured that they were clear . But one thing for sure after all your treatment things soon turn back to normal and fast it’s soon forgotten my diagnosis was July 22 I’m fully back to crazy life and have been for a year try not to google. , will you be takin any medication afterwards? 

love Lara xx 

Hi Lara,

I’m not bad thank you. I get my results on Monday morning. Not sure what I expect really, but will obviously deal with whatever they decide I need next xx
