Quick poll of women who've had SNB
Hi all,
Quick poll: for those of you who had a Sentinel Node Biopsy with the injection of blue dye, how long was your boob blue for?
Thnx, Nadine

The blue dye is used during the lumpectomy surgery...it's used to highlight as much of the cancerous tissue as possible, to see where the tumour carries the dye? I was told this by my surgeon (i think that is correct? it's a bit fuzzy now, so correct me if I'm wrong!) Also everything that came out of me for a few days after was blue also!
