I’m back, I’ve just had a litre of fluid drained from around my heart under local anesthetic, I screamed the place down like a crazy woman. Mastectomy was a doddle compared to this, apparently the radiotherapy I had 2 years ago caused extensive scarring to the lining of my heart which made the procedure twice as painful. I have to admit I’m a bit teary and weary from this poxy disease, on the positive side my scan today overall was good there is still no talk of chemo and my new drug has been approved. That was horrible😢😢😢I’m in CCU for the next day at least if anyone wants me.Think I’ll have a bit of a bawl now.X
