    So happy to hear it went well! Hear you about the drains, I had them after my reduction and they were really annoying to deal with.

    I went to my post-op appt. yesterday and the lymph nodes were clear (yay), but they found extensive DCIS in my muscle facia so I have radiation in my future which is depressing but oh well, what can you do? Also, they didn't take out the drains but hopefully they'll come out later this week.

    The thing I found pretty funny though, was that the total weight of my breast was less than half a pound! I knew I was small but I didn't think I was THAT small!

    Raindrop, sending all my best vibes to you as you go forward.
