Hey Bluemoon
Welcome to the site hun and sorry you have to be hear. Glad you found us though.
Just to let you know there is a great group on here called breast reconstruction which you could ask to join and there is lots of information on there regarding mastectomy and reconstruction.
I had a seroma following surgery and still have it. If you can and are allowed then I would suggest you just gently massage the area when you can but check with your breast team first. Is it able to be drained at all?
I hope you are able to find out all the info you need and able to connect with us all here on this site. There is so much information available to you through various resources you are able to order for free or can read online by just going to the bottom of this page if you haven't already done so. You can go to the Search tab at top right of page and type in what you would like information about and various previous posts will show up there for you. You can search, find and join groups in your area or regarding things that relate to your diagnosis such as HER2 and so on so there is so much available to assist you on this site.
The one main thing will be connecting with other girls/women who have been through or going through what you are going through (yours being slightly different due to diabetes) but the connection is there for you.
Wishing you all the very best with your ongoing treatment and just know that we are here for you every step of the way.
Lots of luv, Mich xoxoxoxoxo
