I've finally had my surgery
Hi Everyone,
I had my Surgery last Wednesday and I'm feeling great except I get a little tired in the afternoon, I didn't have as much pain as I thought I would, my lump was smaller than the surgeon thought so he said he was able to get quite a large margin around the Cancer and only had to remove 1 Lymph Node he was going to take 2 but the 2nd one was behind the chest cavity and didn't need removing, I'm just glad the Surgery is over and now I can concentrate on moving on to the next stage in my treatment but he said getting over the surgery first is important my husband and I took our daughter to see Inside Out yesterday as it was my birthday and today we are going to a Birthday Party being School Holidays she's getting bored, so hopefully we can go shopping so I can buy my Smart Phone as my Mother In Law gave me $100 for my Birthday so I'll just get a Prepaid one and put my Sim Card in it. I'm just pleased the bc is out of me and I can now move on with my recovery once the results are back.
Big Cyber Hug and Smiles

Hi Kazza,
I'm hoping my surgeon doesn't tell me I have to have more surgery but he might tell me I have to have Chemo he did mention it when he discharged me pending on my test results. I hope your surgery goes all well and I look forward to hearing from you on how you are doing, my thoughts and prayers are with you the only person I feel that really understands what you are going through is someone else who is also going through bc. I'm sending lots of smiles and hugs your way and I wish you a speedy recovery.
Hope to hear from you when you are feeling better,
Lots of Cyber Hugs and Smiles
Anita.

Hi Anita,
Well done on having the surgery and I wish you well with your recovery. I had low grade DCIS and my 2nd surgery (in a month) was back in May and my surgeon took out a larger margin but unfortunately my cancer cells had increased and some had started to become invasive. That's why I had to have my mastectomy.
Wishing you well

Hi Karen,
How are you feeling? I'm feeling okay today but I find it hard to look at my surgery site without getting upset but I suppose that's normal I don't really know. I got a little worried when my doctor mentioned maybe Chemo but definatley Radiotherapy, I wasn't expecting him to say that unless he knows something but wants to know for sure I get my Pathology results on 9th of July I guess I will definatly know then, then do what he tells me. I'll talk to you soon.

Hi Rachel,
I'm recovering quite well I could lift my arm for the first time today but I get grossed out when I see the surgery site but I guess that's normal. I hope everything goes well for you my thoughts and prayers are with you at this time, when do you get your Pathology results back? I get mine on the 9th of July.
I'm wishing the best for you,

It was nice to get out on my Birthday and I try and get out of the house as much as I can, I hope you can too when you are feeling better.
