    Had Lobular grade 2 on one side and Tubular grade 1 on the other. WLE and SNB for both on13/03/15.

    Had nuclear injecton and wire placement for each the day before surgery. Not pleasant but the wire means your surgeon can locate the tumor directly with minimum incision and invasion.

    Have since developed a seroma on one side, the size of a squashed orange and pretty sore. Everything else is healing nicely though and I am now waiting to get my radiotherapy appointment date.

    Back to work tomorrow.
