My op is over also. All went very well, my drain was taken out today and I was sent home. Now to wait for biopsys of tumour and nodes. My next appointment with the surgeon is Wednesday. Fingers crossed it hasn't gone to lymph nodes. I have yet to have a full body scan but you can bet it is going to happen very soon.
Well done Jodie, it was lovely chatting to you as well. I'm home now so feel free to call. I still have your number.

- I I think I'll be the same. Im strong then Im weak. Im a bit all over the shop at the moment. But im home and my wonderful daughter her partner my hubby and our 10 year old are doing all my tidying and cleaning while I sit here feeling a bit helpless. They are worth their weight in gold xxx
- Jodie,for about 2 weeks,after my surgery,every time I looked at where my breast once was,I would burst into tears.i was fine when I was dressed.my husband couldn't care less either.It doesn't worry me much any more,and it's been a month.take carexxx
- Im home with my friend the drain. Bit overwhelmed when I hsd a shower and saw my scar where my boob once was. Shed a few tears and didn't want Richard to see me breastless. He doesn't care one bit, it's all me. Something I guess we all have to get used to xxx Spoke to cas before. She sounds wonderful and so upbeat. I had a few scares last night because my blood pressure kept dropping. They did obs every hour then 2 hours. If it dropped below 20 they were calling the doctors in. Luckily at 4am it started to rise. They think because I had all my lymph nodes taken and my body was taking its time to get rid of the anesthetic this was the cause. It's weird because I take medication for high blood pressure each day. But im home. I'm comfortable and know this part is over xxx
