Well I thought I did share my experience with my lumpectomy?
Yes it did leave a tiny horizontal scar, but after a few months you really couldnt see it unless you looked for it. The procedure itself took about 15 minutes from start to finish, I was in preop and postop a lot longer than the operating room. I walked to the OR and laid down on the table and the next thing I knew I was waking up. I had the procedure on friday and was back to work on monday. It was sore for about a week, then after that I would have occasional twinges for about two months, but nothing at all unbearable. I promise there was really nothing to it. My sister, who had it done with a local only said it was pretty much the same thing, only it was done in the Dr's office and it took about 15 minutes from start to finish.
with both of us they used disolvable stitches...which was good, nothing to be removed.
I actually had my mom feel mine so she could compare with how my sisters felt, since my sister actually did have cancer
