Breast nodule removal & TAH
I am having a solid nodule removed from my left breast the same time as my TAH. I had several mammograms and an ultrasound and they still could not determine for sure that it is benign and said I could either come back in six months and let them look at it again, or they could do a biopsy and find out for sure.....well, duh! I would not be able to live with myself if I waited. So, since they are gonna have to make an incision to do a biopsy, I requested they just remove the whole thing and send it off for testing.
I just hope that I'm not overloading myself for recovery. The surgeon removing the nodule says I'll wear a baseball sized bandage for about 3 days, the bad part is it will almost be directly under my left arm. I'm really feeling positive in what the results will be. The best part is it will be out.
Has anyone had these two procedure done at the same time?
I'm only a week away from Pre-op and about a week and a half from surgeries.
