I found after my mastectomy I felt a little bruised so perhaps that's what you are currently feeling.
Take care not to do too much, rest up and take it easy ... after all it is major surgery.
In regards to your immune system, you could drink juices but I did see a report on TV the other day saying how much sugar is in them and I was simply astounded. For instance my favourite - apple juice - has the equivalent of 10 tsps of sugar in a 2 litre bottle/carton that you get from the supermarket!
I'd think about making my own ... if you have a juicer. If you don't have a juicer you could look for organic juice in the Health food shops or supermarket but do check out the sugar levels as they're really high!
Rest up and take it easy
cheers
