ok, its 8pm, just saw Dr. D. Everything went well, actually he said that the infection was not as bad as thought he was going to see. he said it was more an issue of cellulitis (inflammation) versus an infection. So he cleaned up the area, and she is on IV antibiotics.
Dr. D. said that breast tissue post-mastectomy is not real healthy at first (not as much blood flow as before), so infections and inflammation are real common
In recovery now-have not yet seen her.
she will likely go home tomorrow.
That is good news . . .
