Hi my friends,
So happy to let you know my results are good. :)
The remaining breast tissue taken in mastectomy's was 5mm clear of margins, I'm so, so relieved.
I wont be having chemo or radiation. But hormone blockers, and keep getting checked to make sure no micro bits have gone anywhere in my body.
However my healing isn't as good as it should be due to me starting house work as soon as I came home from surgery and having the bleed.
So I'm not allowed to do anything for 10 days, then I see him again and if swelling has not gone down he will siphon the blood out.
So anyone having mastectomy's DON'T do house work when you get out of hospital, it's not worth it!!
I will be going on Hormone Blockers called Exemestane, ( when I'm more healed) has anyone here had these?
What sides could I expect?
I was hoping to not have to wear my compression sox the nurses gave me anymore but I do have to.
I keep getting crampy in my calf and annoying restless legs in the night time, I wonder if these tight sox things attributes to that.
Anyway, I'm very grateful as I know I'm lucky.
Good luck to all others, just got to keep our hopes up.
