Janis had a follow-up appointment with the surgeon this afternoon. Everything is looking good. And if you have seen her, she is looking great. Recovery is coming along as it should.
She was really stressing out about the drains. She wanted them out soooo bad, but was dreading the pain of having it removed. The Dr. checked it out, the flow was low enough to be able to take it out. Turns out, Janis didn't need to worry. It didn't hurt near as much as she had anticipated. She's pretty tough, didn't even get any anesthetic.
Janis has been a real trooper, yet the removal of the 2nd drain really lifted her spirits.
We are done with the surgeon for the time being. Follow-up will be only if there are complications with the recover, and well down the line if reconstruction is considered we would be consulting with him and others most likely....but that's well down the road. Next is the chemo path and the next appointment with the oncologist is Friday afternoon. It will be an exam and consultation, expecting to have the plan laid out and have some more good info available then.
