Hi everyone,
So I finished chemo 6 weeks ago had mastectomy and immediate reconstruction with implant and SLNB on Friday 20 May. I havent really suffered with any bad pains around breast, just few niggling pains in armpit where few lymph nodes removed but that's bearable with painkillers. Where the drain goes in is the most annoying thing because it's uncomfortable and gives me most pain. Just feel restricted in movement when trying to move about in bed, I am managing to get some sleep but it's hard when you wake up uncomfortable. I expected and was prepared for all this but it's just when you want to get back to some sort if normality too quickly and it's so frustrating, and this drain - can't wait for it to come out. Sorry for the rant but want it all over and repair sooner rather than later. But its another piece to add to my journey and I know I'll get there in the end slowly but surely xx
