Hello
I had my masectomy 29th April I was discharged that evening only having 2.5 hrs recovery the following day I got up to go to the Toilet snd fainted I fell on the side of the masectomy and I’m bruised black from top to bottom
subsently I have had Hematoma back and front and side. constant trips and stays to the hospital I’m on drainage by syringe number 4 so far 2 litres
I wanted to know if anyone else has had Hematoma and how long it may take till I start to feel well again .
I know I’m only just about 3 weeks in but it seems never ending at the moment not had a chance to come to grips with the whole process.
Thank you
