Today I had a Mastectomy
That subject line is very hard to write and even harder to comprehend that it applies to me. I love my breasts and am not happy that now there is only one.
Anyway, I have had very little pain, in fact the drip injection site is giving me more grief that the mastectomy and aux clearance side!
Morphine on tap. I was very uncomfortable with the thought of morphine as I have never had it before, I was encouraged to use and and am currently pain free. I have used it twice so far.
And I've only cried twice so far!!! I think I am doing really well π. Had about one billion hot flushes though...
Take care everyone. Back to my book 'Boots to Bliss' who knows maybe I will take (part of) that walk...morphine talking methinks LOL.
