Lumpectomy - ticked off the list!

Thank you for replying. Like you I was doing Dr Google and yes agree we shouldn't.  Just feeling abit low as trying to get my head round this.                                        Hope results for you are good and margins are clear. Thank you for all the info. Take care. xxx

im so sorry to hear you still have not had results. it is quite annoying it has been so long, have you called the nurse?

and Boro, i found they will be non committal until all biopsies are done. my onco test was about three + weeks after surgery, so maybe you are on schedule

when i first started it was definitely radio, with pills as hormone receptive, but then the lymph results i got chemo on the table.

for me after the lumpectomy i found lying on my right side stomach down position best with left side(lumpectomy) protected by kind of propping my arm at and angle and under head to keep affected side above bed. can imagine its hard to visualise

Yes this does help,  I will have this on 5 September.  Did the wire insertion hurt?  I will have it the evening before and then go home.

it didn't for me, a pinch as they say, over quick

Thank you x

Wire insertion does not hurt, nothing to worry about xxx

Thank you.  I seem  to have obsessed about that more than the surgery.  Crazy!  X

Hello Djct

I have spoken to my BCN and community nurse also called me to see how I was post surgery which was kind of them. My appointment was postponed due to Path lab overwhelmed with work and either results not yet back or no time to discuss at MDM. I am wondering if some of this could be down to consultant strikes last week. However, they know how to keep an idiot in suspense

Thank you for this information. My wire insertion , radio active dye and lumpectomy is on Tuesday. Nervous is an understatement 

You've got this, you will be fine x
