Day 3 Post Op - I’m still in hospital. The surgeon is very happy with progress but doesn’t want to send me home with 2 drains so I have to be here until 1 is ready to come out. This has really surprised me as the surgeon had said I would only need to be in a couple of days and could go home when I was bored (ticking that box for sure).
I’m still in no pain and keeping up the preventative Panadol. I’m up and about with little issue. The drains are annoying but I’m still mobile.
I’m doing all my stretching, breathing and walking but trying not to over do it. I’m a good girl I am.
I have my next herceptin treatment on Tuesday and I’m slightly concerned about accessing my port so soon after this surgery (I am a MAJOR cry baby with pain). I should also find out my results from surgery then too. Surprised that would be so soon as well.
All in all, I’m progressing well but was expecting to be going home by now.
