Re: I have to gripe

I'm sorry to read your frustration Linn because I had my bilateral a day after your mastectomy and it seems like this is never going to end. But I did get one of my drains removed today and hopefully I'll get the last one out next week. Apparently I've set a record on fluid output.

I also like that the next poster was honest in that it may not get better for quite awhile. I'm learning that. Although I've opted to go back to work very early post-surgery, it keeps my mind off my pain and the associated headaches that come with this journey.

But kudos to you for getting out and being part of life again. I start my chemo next week and hope I'm one of the lucky ones that doesn't really get too sick, etc.
