swelling post op-can you relate?

[Guest guest]

I'm continuing to have swelling in the left breast. It's getting on my

nerves. No pain, it's just that I want to be perfectly symmetrical,

and all better, and able to pull my canoe down the river. Yes, I do

have a crazy canoe. So, I know...I'm impatient; but, did anyone have

swelling in the breasts? Why do I not have swelling in both breasts?

Dr. M. said the left was a more difficult explant, so I guess I can

understand. Did anyone have this bigger than the other one swelling

problem???? I'm trying not to focus, and trying to be positive. I know

I am so fortunate to have less problems than others have survived

through. I'm just a little concerned. Dr. M. e-mailed that it is

normal to have more swelling in one if the one was more difficult in

surgery. I just don't feel normal......Jackie 10 days post-op
