IV is in place. They used lidocaine to numb my hand a bit before inserting it. It really helped (compared to surgery #1 for my lumpectomy.) Now we wait. I had a tracer injection to identify the lymph nodes that need to be removed/biopsied. It takes a couple of hours for that to be ready to go, so I'm here. Waiting anxiously.
