Hi
I've got my pre operation blue dye appointment on Wednesday, BCN said it's no more painful that getting bloods done, now that's OK however I've had 3 operations and last one 10 days ago not sure this nipple is going to stand any more needles, or do they inject else where x
Hiya, I was petrified at this needle (I hate needles anyhow). However it was tiny and over within seconds it really shocked me that I had built it up and had a full on breakdown in the room with the poor woman having to cuddle me. It wasnt even sore afterwards, but to date my nipple is still blue...I call it my smurf nip
hope it goes ok xx
Lol thank you good job we can have a giggle we have a hashing #nipplegate
Thank you BCN said under my arm, just went OK but knew I'd ask my ladies on here xx
I had mine just above my nipple. Stung for a couple of seconds but I’ve still got the smurf nip !! X
Oh dear but totally understandable, my mastectomy is booked following day so no blue nip for me #nipplegate
