Breast reduction to remove cancer

Oh I forgot about the scars I seams weird that I can forget . I followed my Breast care nurse advice and my scars look great and feel brilliant so glad you have no problems .  Have you had the results from op yet ? 

That gives me confidence.  I'm a G and really hoping to go down to  a D. I'd read somewhere you can only go down 2 cup sizes. So that's reassuring that I may be able to go down further.  Hope your recovery is going well. I joke with friends that next year they can use my bras as hanging baskets! 

Thank you, gad no results yet, when did you feel confident about having proper showers.  My BCN advised I can get it wet now to start getting some glue off, I don't soak it yet, I am 4 weeks post op at the minute. I have some waterproof dressings I can put on xx

When is yr surgery xx

Hi Shaz52 

I am not sure what your dressing where. I was very lucky I had Pico dressing removed one week after surgery I showered 48 hours after surgery ...not get soaked put back in  the shower.,as advised . 4 weeks bath  again as advised.  I think everyone journey is different but we all share the same take care 

Thanks all is going well . I had chemo sit on my bum eating chocolate oranges and giving up smoking along with the steroids I have gained weight so their might be smaller ..  only time will tell take care X 

1st October- 7 weeks since diagnosis.  It's that long as they are doing both at same time so having 2 surgeons who both need to be available.  I've been in very good spirits but starting to worry that it may be spreading during the wait. X

No that's not long, what grade did they say it is. Xx

It's stage 1, grade 2. X

Grade 2 is slow growing pls don't worry you will be fine.  You will be having your surgery before you know it.  How big is the area xxx
