I went down to the theatre for my WLE and SLNB at 7.30am and left the hospital at 3.30pm the same day. Who has told you that you'll be in for 5 days?
x
The surgeon and SCNS, not definite, just it might be up to 5 days due to position and amount to be taken out and subsequent graft
I guess I was lucky then that my WLE was on my arm and was closed with stitches without the need for a graft.

I will keep my fingers crossed for you that it’s not that long, unless you could do with the rest .
Have you got a date for the op yet?
I would rather be resting at home, no haven't got date yet, was told sometime in next 4 weeks
