I had an excisional biopsy on my right breast on Thursday, 08/10/2017. My incision is almost 3 inches along the outside of my right breast. There are several stitches inside and glue on the outside of the incision. During surgery, my doctor found 2 large lumps, instead of the 1 we were planning on removing. He removed both of them. He also found multiple smaller ones, but left them there until we have our results back. He didn't want to take out extra tissue if B9.

I was able to return to work the next day. I have a desk job and wasn't in too much pain. Over the weekend, I felt fine, but took it easy to help with the healing. Yesterday and Today has been horrible. It burns and I keep having sharp pains and it is so sensitive to touch. It hurts even for clothing to rub against me. I called the doctor and was able to move up my appointment to this Thursday instead of having to wait until next Monday, but just curious on other's experiences and how long this will last.

Any advise or personal experiences would be greatly appreciated. I'm ready to be back to being me and I'm ready to hug my kiddos without them being scared to hurt me.

Thank you all in advance. :)
