Bilateral axillary clearance - advice sought

It is a long road but you will settle into the rhythm of it. I found the weekly taxol really hard going but once through that even though on herceptin I started to feel better. I got some lymphedema under the arm and breast area whilst on chemo but after chemo completed laser treatment settled it and it has been good since. Travelling can trigger issues so lifting my arm up regularly seemed to make a huge difference. I hope it's the same for you. It's hard going all the treatment and now complications, you have every reason to feel teary and upset. (I had a meltdown when my portacath was put in as it was an ugly scar and felt it undid all the good work done by my breast surgeon ...no tears after the mastectomy and recon...go figure)

Keep talking about things. It helps. Kath x
