Hello 

My name is Tracey 

I am new to this group. My surgery starts in two weeks with stage 2 her 2-1 breast cancer.

All sorts of names have been given for my diagnosis but looks like I'm having masectomy and up to 20 lymph nodes removed. There is possibility of chemo radio or one or the other or none.

I am scared as heard all sorts about movement of the arm but am practicing the exercises that I have now.

It's the right breast that's being operated on.

Would like thoughts and advise?. Thanks 

  • Hi Blondemoment welcome to the forum. I think if you do the exercises they will give you after surgery religiously them you shouldn't have too many problems..it can feel a bit stiff at first but it does get better. The physios or ward staff will give you the best exercises targeted specifically at you Wink best wishes for now Gail x
