2001, I was diagnosed with breast cancer, the right breast Aikuai 1.0 × 1.5cm; without Aikuai left, but a patchy thickening of the structure. In order to avoid transfer of cancer cells, the operation carried out on both sides of axillary lymph node dissection. Postoperative chemotherapy, a serious upper limb lymphedema, his left arm around his right arm rough than 2 cm. After five years later, upper limb edema is not Jianhao. Whenever I see the disabled chest, swelling of arms such as fertilizer lotus roots, often tears.
The doctor told me that because of edema in the lymph node dissection complications, treatment is difficult. Nevertheless, I still try various approaches to treatment, in addition to daily physical therapy and massage, I use Chinese medicine and Chinese medicine with hot packs, tied with elastic gloves swelling of the arm, to play an active role in the treatment of lymphedema good at the hospital, but have little effect .
I hate the cruel breast cancer surgery, it makes my blood tests and transfusion are only feet; can not bring any more weight, even the pots Xijiao Shui-asked people to help. Tongdingsitong, with a great deal of information and inspection visits to a number of experts, I only know that if only the left breast thickening organizations, not only will narrow the scope of operation, the left axillary lymph node dissection may also consider the appropriate scope of narrowing or even cleaning may be waived.
This painful lesson and I have warned the experience similar to the patients of the former must communicate with doctors. The doctors save the life of patients at the same time, it can also transposition thinking, because in the future quality of life is more important. Cancer patients need more humanistic care, psychological counseling and care.
Fortunately, with medical technology, the international use of the sentinel lymph node biopsy technology, has been in China to clinical application, remove the metastasis of breast cancer patients with no expansion of the pain of surgery. I hope that the growing number of breast cancer and sisters I do not withstand such experience.
