Yesterday was a really long day! I got to the hospital at 8 AM. By 10:15 or so I had been prepped for surgery...I had radioactive stuff put into my right breast and pictures taken and lymph node location marked. Then I was taken to the Florida Breast Institute to have a wire inserted into my breast so the surgeon could follow it to the cancer. Then I waited...and waited...and waited! Finally about 2:00 I went to the OR. Surgery took an hour and then recovery for about 2 hours. Then home about 7:00 PM. I didn't need pain pills...2 tylenol did the trick. I was even able to sleep in bed...just not on my side like I usually do.
Today I've felt better. After my shower, I even sat outside with Bob for a while today. I took 2 more tylenol this morning and now I've taken 2. The worst symptom I'm having is a sore throat from the breathing tube. Both incisions are wicked looking and sore but not painful! I've kept ice on them all day and I can do that as long as I want.
More later...
