A short one:
Had surgery a few days ok. Dr. gr8 says he thinks the mass on the left is just a fibroid and will not be an issue. (yeah!) However, this means that Dr. gr8 does have the previously denied ability to make some sort of judgement based on what he sees during the actual surgical procedure. During the first biopsy he wouldn't say one way or the other - and now I'm sure he knew, just wasn't going to say anything until the path results came back. So this time, when I ask about the sentinel nodes (he took two) - he can't say. We just need to wait for the results. I don't have a warm and fuzzy about all of this, not with the swelling and all. If I had to guess, I'm expecting to be going back in to get more nodes taken out. But I need to wait until Thurday to know for sure. I wish I had a more clear timeline of what was going to be happening when. Everything seems to be going so slowly.
As far as the recover goes, my husband has been wonderful. I was hoping to go back to work today, but I almost passed out last night - and that rather freaked me out. I don't have as much energy today, and my drain is bloodier that before - yuk.
