    Hi ladies my surgery went well surprisingly I don't feel any pain, just dizzy from the meds but otherwise I feel fine. I'm praying that my pathology will be a good news. Again thank you for all your support. I wish you all a very merry Christmas and a very healthy new year xox

    Well I just lost my whole post - blasted iPhone!!!
    i completely agree with Brenda, do your exercises as often as you can. After the first 2 weeks I also made up some new ones to add to the rotation depending on where I was feeling tight.  You will need to sleep on your back for a while and it will help to surround yourself with lots of pillows and prop yourself up a bit. When you are able to lie on your right side, sleep with a very soft cushion or pillow under your left arm to stop the pressure and your arm rolling forward.
    Hold this soft pillow under your left arm when you are sitting during the day - it will lessen the nerve pain you will feel down the inside of your arm from the sentinel node biopsy.
    I hope you continue to recover well, you are off to a great start. Things are a bit different out of hospital - make sure you rest when you need to!
    Please let us know when you receive your results.  Look after yourself. Merry Christmas!

    I started my first cycle of chemo on 1/30/17  i will have 4 cycles then 12x weekly AC then T so far so good but yesterday i had to go to emergency as my temperature gone up to 37.c and i am still in the hospital under observation my white cells were low too and i have pain on my  left jaw and gums does anyone ever experienced this? Any advise you can give me on how to get through this and things i need to avoid etc during chemo period 

    Thanks ladies
