Thank you Sandra. A bit apprehensive but it’ll soon be here. Will just have to deal with whatever they say.

Hi iv just had the same op of lymphnode dissection an got to go back the 29th had mine done last Monday an still have numbness in arm an quite a large lump under top part of scar not sure if that’s where he’s kind of tucked in skin before stitching still a bit painful as well not sure if this is to be expected an not sure wether to ring someone to check or am I being a wimp any advise would be appreciated xx

Thanks! Second biopsy went well yesterday. The radiologist explained everything very well. I think i understand it now. Going to find out results of that on Monday. Dr said hopes we don't have to take that area out too because its a bit larger margin.

I'll let you know the results Monday but i'm optimistic it will all be fine. I'm sure i'll find out more Monday about the excisional biopsy schedule  too.

Thanks! God takes take of us. Everything will be fine I'm sure.  :-)

Hi Lillyfern,

I'm still numb too but it also feels sore if you know what I mean. I had my op last Monday too. I would call your BCN if you are at all worried. 

Since I got back from my check up I've had pain around the nipple area but I am sure that is where they took the Steri strips off and were just checking me over. Oooooo and just thought I've had no paracetamol today.

Hey ladies - hope you've enjoyed your day as best as you can. Keep going and soldier on - you got this.

This whole episode is hard and very hard at times but you'll all get through. Just remember to take care of yourself mentally as well. Do things to make you happy and relaxed.

I read alot and tried to find out all the facts with it in the back of my mind that I'm not a medic and whatever I read may not pertain to me. I am a bit of a control freak so by doing that I felt a little in control.

One day at a time. Take care and enjoy the rest of your evening. Good luck to all those waiting for results.

Ah brill 

clear margins nd lymph nodes .... yay :-)

im tagging [@Warriorqueen]‍ for you as she too had an extra wait while her “alien” was sent off to America for testing.

exactly the right frame of mind.... look on the time as a break from everything hospital 

take care me dear x

Hi lilyfern and a warm welcome to the thread.

No u are not being a wimp... it is not long since your op. Lemondrizzle is right... give your breast care nurse a ring and explain your concerns. Don’t want u worrying over the weekend when they are not there to provide u with their support. It’s why they are there... to help. Even just to put your mind at rest is worth a call :-)

sending hugs me dear u can do this...and remember you are not alone.... we are here if u need us ️

Hi jbains

pearls if wisdom as always :-) thank you again for getting me through my road to discharge. 

Hope your work journey is a bit better now it’s cooled down a bit :-)

take care me dear ️ X

The American result is well worth the wait as it tells you everything. Helps you decide what to do as well as the doctors! But the weight is still horrible! x
