Post surgery
Hi ladies, I had a double bilateral mastectomy, 3 nodes removed with expanders on the 22nd November. I am still in quite a bit of pain and I'm still very sore and swollen. I have been taking painkille...
Hi Tina, I didn't have problems with where my drains were, so sorry i can't help you. My expanders are fat and lumpy under my arm, but i know that it is the expander as it increased in size each time I had the expanding done. I'm hoping (and have been told) that this will improve once I have had the exchange surgery in a few months. I hope it improves for you and good luck for your appointment. x
