another post-mastectomy question
Sarah had a (second) mastectomy two weeks ago. We are both feeling that she has been recovering somewhat slowly. She has very little energy, and has been complaining about abdominal pain for the last 4-5 days. Kind of too long for a stomach bug.
How does this compare with other people's experience? She is Stage IV, but scans in October did not show abdominal mets of any sort. I haven't read much about GI mets from BC anyway. Am I just being a worry wart?
thanks.
Steve
