New diagnosed, 73, introvert, living alone. Surgery tomorrow (2nd March) for lumpectomy and sentinal lymphnode. My doc has told me I will be having radiontherapy once the biosypy results are in.

Great that you have a BC Nurse to chat to - she will become your first 'port of call' (apart from us! xx) Great that they are aware you need someone with you for the first day or two xx. I do hope you have someone who can stay with you. Some patients are sent home the same day after surgery - being rural, I was kept in overnight & went home to my brother's place the next day - before heading home (Mid north Coast NSW) a few days after that. They don't like you driving for a few days, normally .....
Unfortunately, there's been a bit of a glitch on editing the 'Profile' page - which I believe @Mez_BCNA (one of our moderators) will be contacting the site Web managers about .... so don't worry too much if you can't add your location again just now (as it is definitely not showing yet.) Having added it when you joined & it not showing at this point in time - is different again, so they need to know that!!
When you have a few spare minutes - feel free to read this info on the site ..... and I hope you get a bit of a giggle or can add some pics of your garden, pets or other bits that makes you happy xx
