Hay

Good luck tomorrow! I had my girls cut off last year. I managed the pain with norco. I used the meds for one week and then I did not need them anymore. In two weeks time the drians should be out and you will start to feel better. Take one day at a time and breathe. You will get through this. Next year it will be just a bad memory.

Welcome Hay! We have the same BC, same stage. I had my surgery in 2014, and am currently cancer-free. Sending good wishes to you.

Hay (great screen name!), I just read your response to (I forget her name), and I am moved to say that, while you (and all of us) are "fighting for your life," I hope you can also know that MANY of us breast cancer survivors DON'T die from breast cancer and DO go on to live decades after our diagnosis and treatment. I'm not being a Pollyanna by saying this; I'm well aware that breast cancer kills many women (and some men), but there are so many of us who survive and even thrive. You probably know all this, so I hope you don't mind my reminder! Take care and think of hair! Hugs, Carool
