Good luck @joeyliz
Hi Joeyliz, I couldn't find a discussion to post on and I lose track of the days but I think I'm right that you've got your surgery at the end of this week so wanted to wish you good luck with it. I hope your Mum has arrived and you're feeling the love.

- JoeyLizMemberHi @lrb_03 feeling ok still sore swollen and bruised Hubby says it looks like I’ve got an implant in my armpit!
- lrb_03MemberHi @JoeyLiz. Hope you're feeling a bit better each day, and that the ooze has eased.
I didn't have either hookwire or blue dye, so can't comment on those.
Because I had my surgery as a private patient, 3&1/2 hours drive from home my surgeon kept me in until she had the results, in case reexcision was needed. Unfortunately it was! Ended in hospital for a week :pensive:
Thinking of you <3 - primekMemberI never had the blue....I was told about it but they only did radioactive not blue. Weirdly as my surgeon was expecting blue.
- kmakmMemberOh I'd forgotten the blue wee as well! It took a good three months to fade from the injection site. Hope you had a good night's sleep. A relief to have that over and done with. K xox
- SisterMemberI'd forgotten the blue wee - it comes out blue at the other end, too if you're sick! Glad to hear it went well.
- JoeyLizMember@primek yes it went well thanks!
but what a long day! 8:15am for the lymph node radioisotope injection, then 11am for the hookwire placement and surgery was at 3:45, got home at 9pm!
pains not too bad but a bit of oozing so gonna Call GP in the morning to see if I can get my dressing changed as it’s soaked though a bit.
oh and I didn’t expect my wee to be blue hahaha - primekMember@JoeyLiz I hope surgery went well for you and you are resting and finally getting some sleep. Kath x
