Newly diagnosed invasive ductal and lobular in right breast

I had the surgery July 11th! I’m doing OK. It was very painful the first day and still painful today but it’s tolerable. I spent the night in the hospital thank goodness and got lots of pain and anti nausea meds. Now it’s mainly painful when I move. I’m definitely in slow motion!! They removed 2 lymph nodes and found cancer in one. They are going to run more tests on the samples he took in surgery and then come up with a plan. Thank you for checking on me!!

I’m so sorry you are still in pain. Mine last for about a week and I had to take oxycodone at night. It gets better after the drains were removed. Just make sure you strip the drain to prevent clogging of the tube. With one lymph node they still do oncotype test to determine if chemo is needed. So hopefully you don’t have to do chemo. Be patient. You will fully recover. It’s just a matter of time. It took me a full 8 weeks to feel normal again. Keep in touch to let us know how you doing. Hugs.
