The girls have said it all. My own 'surgical' experience was pretty good..got by on just Panadol (the same as Robyn). My 'little' pink pillows were a godsend..especially at night..giving me much comfort...as I had a double mastectomy. I was in hospital for five days..(private) I had quite a lot of drainage and the Dr. preferred me to stay...I felt OK though..up walking around and showering myself. Ask your Dr. about. ,driving..housework etc. he will advise you. Just remember we are all unique...take each day as it comes and get plenty of rest...also don't forget to do your exercises.! I will be thinking of you next Wed. All Best Wishes. Chris.x
