[@MissThomas1988]‍ , hi i had right breast mastectomy on 10 th of March and lymph node removed for biopsy. Mastectomy and breast reconstruction at the same time. I spend one night in hospital and went home the following day , lots of painkillers and antibiotics for two weeks. I was not able to eat for few days due nausea from anaesthetic. After five days i went to see my surgeon, they checked the wound and removed drains ( drains was a headache a bit as you carry bottle conected to your body ). Since day 3-4 iam going out for a walk even if its 15 min, drink lots of water and no painkillers since day 4. My treatment plan it's chemotherapy after 4-6 weeks but at the moment iam waiting for pathology report to see if cancer spread to lymph node . My Her 2 is positive so chemotherapy its on a list . I hope i give you clear picture, and in a main while its not so scary or painful how it looks . Lots of rest and positive thoughts ! If you have any questions please be free to ask . Zx
