Surgery 30th November - Bilateral Mastectomy with Node Clearance
I’m looking for some advice (and reassurance). My surgery is booked for this Thursday. I was meant to have this surgery 2 weeks ago but I over did it on my birthday weekend and ended up with a bulgin...
I opted for a double mastectomy. Am 38 with 2 small boys. I experienced very little pain after. I had axillary clearance in the left side and had some weird nerve pain for a while after and a numbness. I actually wouldn’t call it pain more like I got tasered every so often! Took panadol when needed. Full mobility after a week or 2 and no dramas since. Good luck!! When you wake up after your op the cancer will be gone!! Xx
