After having two breasts off now, the assistant nurses freaked out to take blood pressure and any blood from the hand - i have a port for infusion and draws.
my surgeon said today that because so few nodes were taken out of either side, that there should not be a problem doing draws either arm. i do not have lymphedema. i agree with him
What do you think? I think it's ok to do?
also how do i explain to freaking out nurses about doing. I can't exactly carry a liability disclaimer with me, ha ha ha
Let me know your expereinces?
thanks. xoxox
