Surgery tomorrow morning!

I'm nervous but I really like my surgeon and glad he got me in so quickly. He's also doing the sentinel node thing, so I hope that turns out well.

Wish me luck!

Best of luck!! I found it wasn't bad and I had a bilateral mastectomy with tissue expanders. What are you having done?

Erin - I am wishing you luck. is it a lumpectomy or MX. I am very glad you really like your surgeon - I really like mine and thought it was most important in my overall good experience, because I was able to put my trust in him and know that he was doing a great job.

Good luck tomorrow - having faith in your surgeon is so important as others have said. I found my fear of the unknown was far worse than the surgery and recovery.  Let's hope yours is the same.

Good luck tomorrow, Erin! We'll all be thinking of you. If you have any last-minute questions, there's a wealth of experience in the community, so ask away.

It's a lumpectomy and a sentinel node removal/biopsy. (I think that's what it's called).

Thank you!

I'll follow up with chemo then radiation post surgery- I think I got this! xo
