Odd Question after a Lumpectomy

Actually two questions...after my lumpectomy I could hear fluid squishing around in my breast ( after the removal of the drain) It's gone now, but isn't that odd? Also, did or does anyone have sensitivity to cold drinks? In other words, I'll have a sip of a cold drink and can feel it in my breast as it goes down to my belly...I know it isn't actually going into my breast but the fact that I can feel it is strange

    You'll be surprised at what you feel/notice after the diagnosis of cancer!

    When they did a surgical biopsy on my right breast, the squishy sound was so bad, I had my husband take me to emergency room. My breast was completely black also, so it scared me. Apparantly it was just fluid that had not absorbed yet and all was well. Sounded like I was walking with a water balloon on my chest. Lol. Linda
