The waiting game
Hey ladies. Well I had my lumpectomy and sentinel node biopsy last Thursday and get the results on Friday to see what the next step is. Expecting the worse, but hoping for,the best at this stage. I do have one question though. So far I've been taking panadine forte for the pain and its been all good. The pain has mostly been in my chest area and the breast care nurse said this was probably due to the fact that on the ultrasound the tumour appeared to be touching the pec muscle so she thinks they would have had to go deep. Just today I have been getting quite bad pain in my upper arm underneath. How have other ladies gone with the pain and have you had the same type of pain start up 5 days post op. any help would be great.
Thanks Tanya
