Hello my friend, how are you?

My surgery went well. No cancer was found in the other breast, just a pappiloma (sp?) which I understand isn't really that big of a problem. I'm doing pretty well, other than still getting rundown quite a bit which I think could be do to my low muga/echo score, and I'm hoping that it improves. I have an appointment with my onc on Tuesday for my 3 month checkup, and of course I've been having a lot of pain in the chest area where the bc was located, but I'm sure that it's most likely in my head.LOL If it wasn't for the redness and scaley skin though on the incision line. It's been 13 months now since that surgery. So I dunno.
