Hello
i had my surgery 2 weeks ago tomorrow ,I felt a bit sore and tender for the first week , found I was allergic to the dressings as I was very itchy ! Taken everything off and have 2 neat scars .. I am still sore , has anyone else experienced the wounds to be uncomfortable? I thought i would be feeling better by now .
now that horrid wait to see the surgeon to hear if the C had spread not enjoying herceptin but know how lucky we are to have it .
do you feel tired and have no energy ? Hoping this will pass
good night dear friends
Hi Pink Betty welcome to the forum. Two weeks is a very short time to be hoping for this to be a bit more comfortable, it may take some longer time for this to settle down for you. Yes it is quite normal to have no energy and feel tired but I suspect that if you are like others then your sleep pattern will be disturbed and that may account for the sense of feeling tired. That period of waiting for results is awful and we can all empathise with you on that one but hopefully not be too long now and then you will know exactly what it is you are dealing with.
Sending some hugs your way for now.
Thanks Gail for taking the time to reply to me .. it’s so reassuring to know that you aren’t alone x
