Well the MRI showed that the tumor had shrunk from 2.7 Centimeters to 1.7 Centimeters soooooo I am getting a partial mastectomy on Jan 20th. He is also going to remove most or all of my lymph nodes under my left arm and I will come home with at least one drain . I will be kept overnight and its still considered an outpatient procedure. Ganju also said that the drain is in for about 7 to 10 days and that it takes up to a month to feel “okay” again. So if everything goes as he said I can handle it.
My worries involve the pathology report which wont say if he got clear margins until 2 days after my surgery (repeat surgery is NOT something I wish to experience), him finding something else during the surgery necesscitating more hell for me, repeating chemotherapy, and of course the shit coming back. This is one life experience I do NOT wish to repeat.
