Unilateral mastectomy and now results
I had my unilateral mastectomy last Tuesday and I am recovering well. I have my second postop check up tomorrow. The drain is running along well. I have two more appointments with this and I am done....
Forum Discussion
I am not sure that if the oncologist will talk to you about diet. If you are in the public system you can ask to see a dietician and if not ask your GP if you be referred to a dietician. You can have GP Management Plan and Team Care Arrangement referral giving you 5 free visits to a dietician.
I am going to be sorcing a dietician to help me boost my immune system once my oncologist says I can. I haven't cut out dairy especially milk because I was already low in Vit D and I am concerned about my bones. I think I have done the trick as I have lovely long fingernails which I have never been able to have before? This is with having 3 FEC chemo and 2 x Docetaxel (one more to go this Thursday).
Hope you enjoy the rest of the Easter break.
Best wishes
