Axillary Dissection Wisdom Needed

I had a full node clearance back in 2003.At first I seemed to have good movement-maybe the pain killers??But then the rot set in and it got worse before it got better.You'll most likely have another drain after your op.They are the pits aren't they.Keep doing your arm exercises and be prepared to go to a physio if need be.I had to go to one at around 4weeks post op cos I could barely raise my arm.After a few months my arm was fine.Sometimes it feels abit heavy if I overdo it but otherwise no problems 8 years on.Hang in there and be patient- waiting(for whatever)is a big part of breast cancer unfortunately.
