Had my lumpectomy this morning.  Surgery went well.  2 nodes removed and both were clear.  Surgeon said preliminary test shows that he got a real clear margin.  Drain in for only a few days (I hope).  Worse part was the nausea after surgery.  Feeling a little better now.  Hubby  cooked (for the first time in 33 years). ha ha.   Must say, it wasn't bad!

I will be meeting with the doc on Tuesday to discuss radiation. Thanks for all the prayers!   I'll keep all of you in mine.

Debbie

    Sorry I'm a little late responding but I just wanted to let you know how happy I am that you had clear margins and clear nodes.  That is wonderful news.  Hopefully your drains are out or will be soon and I'm sorry you had nausea after surgery.  I used to have that problem but, when I had my mastectomy in 2009, the anesthesiologist put a small patch behind my ear and it prevented the nausea.  You might ask about that if you ever need surgery again (which I hope you never ever do).  Good luck with the rad doc.

    HUGS!!!
