First the good news. I had a lumpectomy of my R breast two weeks ago. Removed two sites of concern, one intermediate and one high grade. Yesterday had the good news that all the margins were clear. No further surgery just radiotherapy. I feel like I have my life back after 2 months of fear and anxiety.
A Seroma has mostly absorbed and the wound looks fine. The skin is highly sensitive and feels like a bruise.How long does this go on for? Doesn’t help that I have big boobs so fighting against gravity! Wearing flexifit bra plus camisole with shelf support 24 hrs.
To celebrate we have booked a short cruise in a months time so I am hoping it will be fine to have the radiotherapy when we return ( 7 weeks post op).
Good wishes to all you lovely supportive people x
That would be perfect timing for me.It’s only a 4 day cruise but is on the Queen Elizabeth. We had to cancel 3 holidays when I was diagnosed but as hubby says you need to be well to have holidays.
I hope your healing goes well. Don’t be too disconcerted if you hear fluid sloshing in your boob, normally it will absorb over time.As one of the forum ladies said, it sounds like a hot water bottle
