Sharing is caring. Thanks ladies

You are welcome @karma03. I agree. This forum has wonderful participants. 

You are so right @karma03.  I am also having bilateral mastectomy after 10 days. I was very apprehensive about the procedure however hearing about the experience of the other ladies I feel really calm.  So many ladies have shared their experiences, I am so grateful to all of them.

Many ladies before and sadly more to come to follow your path. Good luck with your surgeries  ladies. You are stronger than you think. X

Good luck with the surgeries ladies, we are all here for you <3

Thank you @primek and @Nefertari. 

Thinking of you both @Karma03 and @PV123, with your surgeries and treatment.
Isn't it amazing what we can do and cope with? 
I am sure at times we don't give ourselves enough credit for our strength.
Sending you my very best wishes

All the best, @Karma03 & @PV123  - once you've had your surgery and got your game plan, you'll be much more settled.  Many of us are amazed that we do 'sail thru' the surgery relatively ok (compared to how we THOUGHT we'd do!)  It mucks with our brains even more than our bodies!

Make sure you have a small long cushion at the hospital & for the ride home, to support the wounded wings (even whilst in hospital & also to hug when in the car driving home to absorb any bump impacts.)

Take care, take the pain meds & make haste slowly. xxx

Thanks @suburbangirl and @arpie. 

Oh no!!  If you can get it removed without causing more bleeding, I think that would be the way to go - let the flesh toughen up?

I hope what ever you do, it stops bleeding & hurting & starts to get better . xx

Thanks arpie.  Your suggestions are appreciated.  I think waiting is the hardest thing.
