What precautions should I take after Skin sparing Mastectomy?

The lumpectomies were in April 1 and April 29 and then the mastectomy and reconstruction on June 22.(one year to the day from the spinal fusion- how’s that for irony ). The expander exchange was on Oct 1. I’m just now getting my energy back and I think my body is adjusting to the Arimidex. I have had a lot of joint pain and nausea. My gastrologist prescribed sometime for that(I just happened to mention it at my yearly appt) and that has really helped. I really hope you do well and know we’re all pulling for you.

What were you prescribed for nausea?
I have days long bouts of nausea and then none at all. Trying to pinpoint the culprit. It may be D3 ( I reduced dosage) probiotic ( changed to a single acidophilus) or perhaps Anastrozole.
I may need some relief for those flare up days.
Hoping you have a good adjustment to the surgery and meds as time goes on. I will be a year out for me … unilateral mastectomy next month… it really does take about a year to be back to “ routine” check ups 🌸.
