Thanks, Diane and yes, long recovery is right!

Glad to hear your scare was only that. My mother had a similar wire-sticking-out-of-her-boob experience with a lump about two weeks before I discovered my discharge (in the same boob as my mother). In her case, it was malignant but it was (I think this is what the doc said) encapsulated and they got the whole thing. My eldest girl and I were there with her for the whole thing (other than the actual surgery - LOL), so I can appreciate how much fun it wasn't for you!

Thanks again for shouting out, and I'm sending you wishes for a lump-free future!
