Lumpectomy

Hi, I have IDC and I just had my lumpectomy. Surgery went well, the surgeon said he only took one lymph node. I do believe he also said that the tissue wasn’t enough to get a pathology report. But it looked normal when he removed it. I have my follow-up appt. Next week to find out more about the next steps. I would like to say that the pain level has been much milder than I had expected. The only thing I wasn’t quite prepared for was the size of the incision. It is about 3 inches long and right at the top of my breast. That is where he said it would be. I do have some bruising and soreness but all in all it went well.

Blessings to all of you!
