Scared of Magseed procedure
Hi all, so I need to have Magseed inserted in my breast prior to surgery and I am petrified, as I always am with procedures and needless, etc. I just don't cope well with them. I was told it's simi...
Hi greenplastic ! Thanks so much for your reply! Wow that woman is amazing! I had my procedure today, and let's just say, I survived it but it was still very challenging.
Now I need to have the blue dye injection day before the surgery and again, I'm absolutely PETRIFIED!!!! It horrifies me. Did you have that done maybe?
Sorry for the late response, I hope the dye injection went well - I don't remember it being too horrible but maybe it did sting a little bit? I assume maybe you've had you surgery already. I hope it went well! I've had both blue dye injection before a lumpectomy I had done in 2024 and sadly had a recurrence this year so I've just been through a second surgery with a full mastectomy (left side only). The second time they injected me with some radioactive material the day before rather than the dye and put me in a CAT scan to trace what lymph node it went to. I feel like the experiences were quite similar except my boob is not blue this time around! It did go away eventually though!
