21st TAMOXIFEN !!

[MaryAnnSingleton]

here we are- how did that happen ?

I'll bet it is scar tissue too amber - try not to get in a pickle about it xxx
smee I knew you'd be a Converse girl
I have some light blue ones,-very old now..dh has several pairs of the hi tops and ds used to but outgrew them really fast, so gave them to one of his girl pals.
Hope dh isn't poorly figgy
hopeless men sparkle but swimming sounds a hoot.
Arf at junior topsy's present

I have scar tissue at different levels from where my lump was removed amber, some near the surface of the nipple and some quite deep in....I am sure that is all it is for you too. Try not to stress about it. X

Got antibx from OOH doc today-couldnt face another night of cough cough coughing-he said that if there is a temp and a 'productive' cough then it is a secondary infection and antibx are the only answer.back with my old pal amoxicillin for 7 days.
Amber that certainly sounds like scar tissue to me but it is so easy to become fixated on symptoms post bc.I still do it after 5 and a half years.

Hi everyone, hope you've all had a good day.

Amber - I haven't got any experience to offer, but just wanted to send a reassuring hug your way. I think you mentioned you have a check up next week, is it something you could ask about at the same time to help put your mind at rest?

Gig - I'll add some nice smellies to my list. Like the idea of a onesie, but don't think I've got the figure for one - imagining myself looking like the fifth member of the teletubbies!

Getting lots of practical offers of help for post surgery which is nice, it's good to know I'll have plenty of support as and when I need it. Feeling odd about going to work tomorrow, worried I won't be able to concentrate, but will just have to see how it goes.

I'm leaving some Thorntons choccies on the fbs trolley to help you celebrate Mother's Day (only had 2 and got indigestion) - enjoy!

Marking spot- feel rubbish as been in bed with flu all day.

Amber- scar tissue does feel hard and lumpy as others have said. I have a hard line like a lump under the scar where they removed by galactaceole.

1st glad you are getting help- and no onesie isn't elegant but is comfy

Sorry you're feeling poorly Gig, snuggling up under the duvet is best place to be, hope you feel better soon.

Get well soon Gig, that's all you bloody need :(
Amber, try not to worry (yeah right) hugs your way
I have scar tissue, in a different place, but certainly feels hard.
Hope all the mums had a good day, I have chocs for fbs trolley please eat them I'm stuffed!

Good luck for work 1step, I know what u mean, its so hard to concentrate on anything but maybe will distract you a little. Hope you have nice employer, I'm lucky in that mine have been very understanding and forgiving!

Quick good evening to all.

amber lovey try not to worry, it sounds just like scar tissue - I've got a load under my arm from my op. which feels like a lump, but is nothing sinister. Am sure they will put your mind at rest at your check up.

Sorry you are fluey Gig - hope it improves soon, and pleased you have some AB's Greylady and can shake off your nasty cough.

1step - anything that will make you feel comfy and nice in hospital is a good thing. nice hand cream, etc. - and baby wipes handy for freshening up in hot hospital. Good luck at work tomorrow.

Sparkle - men are often crap at remembering and organizing stuff, but your swimming sounds good fun

Waving to Holsten hope you had a good weekend, and that everyone else had a good mother's day.

Thank you o splendid friends. I am a champion panicker of gold medal standard.

oh poor gig and greylady - feel better soon both of you.
Ha ! I lost the bid for the converses,but never mind- they'd've only been a bit less than buying online so I could go ahead and order some blue ones after all !
Sleep well everyone xx

Am sure I'd effortlessly win the gold.

Hope gig and grey lady feel better soon. Flu and lurgies sound grim indeed. I'm feeling a bit sick too, but it's from too much mother's day choc, so definitely don't deserve any sympathy.

Wishing you all sleep.. xxx

on the go here. Thanks for all the messages of support re ds. Guess he was not ready for it. Will give him some time to decide what to do next.

With Mum for a couple of days, so time to get up!
Hope you all managed some sleep. Looks nice and sunny here :)

Fresh on as I missed j's.....beautiful sunny day here too. Ds at home with neck pain and associated stuff, dd1 at home with sore throat.....dd2 very happy as she can play with them Will be a busy day, but will pop in and out to keep up with news, eat fbs and hand hold where necessary.

If proof reading of this message was anything to go by, today is going to be another doozy for me.....children in red wine.....

Happy Monday all!

Hope sun perks everyone up this morning?

Feeling ok this morning, just so bored of feeling tired. . . I felt a bit sick yesterday, but somewhat self inflicted. May possibly have eaten too much bread and butter pudding that my lovely boys made

Hope greylady and gig feeling a bit better this morning? So sorry you're both feeling rotten. Hope those ABs kick in soon grey

sparkle swimming sounded fun. Men are a bit crap sometimes!

1step hope work OK for you today. Thinking of you x

MAS have paypalled for my stickers!

Wishing everyone a good day x x

Well having got antibx for the ruddy cough I have now developed a very sore,itch bright red area under my right breast. I am pretty sure it is intertrigo which I have had before but I am so fed up with feeling I'll and now I am uncomfortable as well. I wish I could go to sleep for a week and wake up feeling fine. Happy Monday every one :-)

Morning all

Beautiful here too , is also a bank holiday so I have the DC off school .
Was having a lovely lie in till the Vicar who lives opposite me decided to start mowing his lawn ...

thegreylady - Hope you feel better soon, it is miserable feeling poorly. Can you do anything for the itchy?

Topsy - Bet you have a lovely smell of fresh cut grass in warm sunshine though.....very spring like.

that sounds v annoying greylady on top of feeling poorly.
ned thanks v much - will post soon !
1step hope work is ok...x

Am off to paint a picture and then go into town...lovely and sunny here.

grey lady. Impetigo's nasty.

Gig' how are you today??

Ned, good to hear you're not so bad. Being tired's dull, but it's better than feeling sick!

Gorgeous day here too. Don't want to be inside working that's for sure. Coffee on the stove, and birds tweeting outside. Might take a cup into the garden to watch them for a while.

Back from docs after discovering mega white spots on throat. Oral thrush. . . Nice. This journey keeps on giving doesn't it?

Yuk, poor you Ned. I had those a few times. Watch you don't get further infected.

poor ned

Got tablets for 2 weeks, smee Will that sort me out? Not too sore, just bit gluey when i swallow. Yuk. Using fbs to self medicate . . .

FBS is the only way to go. I will put another on to sooth your throat.
