good luck both I had breast cancer june 22 hete to chat or help anytime sending you both a warm hug xx 

Hey  Wanted to check in with you.

Surgery went well. The wire and dye pre op was relatively painless.

Felt like a long day over all. 

I struggled with the anesthetic afterwards with sickness, but that has happened before with previous surgeries of a overwelming feeling of motion sickness, so I tried to sleep it off. 

I was discharged the same evening I just wanted to come home and get in my own bed, had a bit of sickness but felt better after I had ate.

I have two dressings and a super blue nipple from the nuclear dye injection, also have bright blue urine, which they said would happen. 

The pain, at this time seems very manageable, im just using paracetemol today, but just feels slightly heavy on my breast, if that makes sense. But writing this less than 24 hours later I feel ok. I have hubby looking after me ( getting my mum to make sure someone is also looking after hubby too) 

Im going to message my breast nurse today, they did say they would reach out. 

They told me to expect a appointment in about 3/4 weeksn to check about next steps. 

Hope youre doing ok too

Hi Shanie,

I'm glad to hear that all went well for you. 

Please keep in touch and let us know how you get on.

Kind regards,

Hi, I just noticed your message, thank you. :)

Hi, sorry for delay in replying, had a long hospital day with my son yesterday, we are up with the larks and don’t get home till 6/7pm and feel exhausted.

so everything went well with you, that’s great, :) 

so do they put the dye in to check the tumour margins? Glad it wasn’t too bad. 
Not nice being poorly with sickness post surgery though.  Glad you feel better now. Wow a blue nipple! I am sure my hubby and I will make some jokes about that if I have the same. We use humour to get through things. 

how’s the pain now? How’s hubby? It’s all such a juggling act isn’t it.  

hope you get your appointment soon. I am wanting it to be the 11th as that when I find out a more concrete plan,

Glad you aren’t feeling too bad :) 

I am just thinking I bet I end up with a blue boob too. I like tattoos and would have more if the hubby was more on board! 

Ye my son is doing o.k, I am giving some chemo at home for the next couple of weeks and he gets some at hospital and then hopefully he’s in maintenance. Just want to get to that for him and then can think about me a bit. 

I really hope things work out for the juggling of your husbands procedure and your radiotherapy! It’s difficult when there is so much going on! 

I don’t blame you being annoyed about the cancer tainting things, I am the same, I can annoyed about a lot. Too much to say ! But then I eventually think, there is nothing I can do, get on with it! But that me and the feelings change a lot! 

I am overwhelmed, but I think once I get next Thursday over I will feel better as I will have a plan! Just need to get to that! 

let me know if anything changes, x
