Surgery Booked

Try not to worry to much...I was very scared as well...I just thought of it as one of the many hurdles we all have to jump, some are small & the others high & you will get through this... That's what I kept telling myself.... I had same surgery as you & 2 wire incisions I had 2 grade 2 tumours.. So here's what they did..they gave me a local anaesthetic & they explained that I would feel a little bit of pain when they hook the wire into the tumour, it doesn't hurt until they reach the tumour, the first one hurt a little bit & the second one took him ages to hook through, he said this tumour was stubborn & had calcified, so that's why it took a couple of goes to hook,which did hurt a bit more than the first one.. Then they tape the wires to your chest to stop them from swinging around. I then went of for the nuclear dye medicine for the lymph nodes & then waited in a room for my surgery.. My surgery went really well, my surgeon got clear margins around the two tumours & my scar is really neat I had 30 rounds of radiation & finished in February & I am now recovering from a hysterectomy & about to start on tamoxifen...I hope this helps you out .... I have had a few hurdles on this journey & I am happy to have got this far...I have also learnt so much from just coming onto this net work...the ladies are really lovely so many stories & lots information... So take one day at a time & more important take time out for you.....I wish you all the best of luck for next Friday.... Take care:) Christine:) xox
