Hi @@Cindi, the first week was very slow for me too😊.
There wasn’t pain/sore around my surgery area ( the lymph nodes and lumpectomy). I have very minor swelling ( everyone will be different). I have several bras( some were slighter larger in case I had swelling)
However, I found my arms sort of glue to my chest (not sure how best to describe this feeling). I also had restricted arms movements. I tried my best to do the arms exercises and the other thing I did was to eat lots of fruits (Vit C for healing). I’ve been seeing a BC physio specialist to manage my arms movement.
I told my surgeon and he says it takes time to heal but superficially my surgery was recovering well till I started chemo!😒
Now that I am having chemo, the chemo drugs is playing up with my recovery unfortunately (I feel some pain around my surgery area) and have informed my medical oncologist.
fingers and toes all crossed that the results are good.
