I had my lumpectomy on 2 November with hook wires prior to the the operation. Stayed overnight. Everything went well except having nausea and vomiting. They said it is " normal" and is a result of anesthetic. Happy it is over for now. Seeing my BS in 10 days. I brought with me my post surgery bra from Kmart which is absolutely fantastic and comfortable. My McGrath nurse visited me and gave me a bag for drain, showed me how to exercise and we had a nice chat. When the doctors visited me after the operation, I asked them to send me a Breast care nurse and they did while I was still in hospital. .
