All of a sudden the treatment seemed to make her more ill than the cancer

Surgery

Your brother or sister may need an operation to remove one or more lumps.They will be given an anaesthetic to ensure that they stay fast asleep so don't feel anything. When they wake up medicines will be given to stop them feeling pain. Sometimes during an operation tubes are used and these may stay in for a few days after the surgery. After the operation your brother or sister may feel sleepy for a day or more.
