Thank you so much everyone. I'm home now but only able to sit at PC for about twenty mins at a time.
Operation took ten hours and the surgeons say I did well. Very slow progress but I can walk around the garden a bit. Not allowed to lift anything or drive for six weeks.
One bonus is I have actually lost six kg !
I did ask the surgeon if he had sneaked a gastric bypass in there as I could only eat a tiny amount... this is slowly getting better though.
They tell me there were good margins on the cancer so hopefully the prognosis is good.

Thoughts are with you @daisyduck.. when do you get seen for a follow up? How are wounds?

Thanks @donnellysdogs I see the first surgeon on 20th June and the renal surgeon in a couple of months. Wound is enormous .. from just under my breastbone down to my pubic area. Took 44 clips but it has healed amazingly well. I put that down to my fitness, skin care, keto diet. High dose vit C , Tumeric and R-ALA

Do have a look a pomi-t tablets. Recommended by leading Oncologist Professor Robert Thomas. I was unable to take the hormone cancer tablets. I have been taking these instead and I have now been discharged from care from breast cancer unit with no evidence of disease and no more follow ups because I am a "flattie"....
All within 32 months. Had bone scan results as all clear. My Professor told me I am the perfect patient!!! (Despite not taking and putting up with the hormone tablets. I do contribute this to Pomi-T helping me as things in my life have always been chaotic and with hubbys sudden death, at 51, even more so. To get discharged and NED for me is down to the pomi-t especially as I am a very erratic sort of eater!! -well at least, not classified as normal!

The wound is long! But glad you are healing. I hope all goes well for your appointments and for your continued healing.

Much love. Xx
