Went through the savi treatment after my lumpectomy for DCIS. I had two treatments per day for five days. I had no pain from the insertion or the removal today. I was awake for both. I was told to expect some itching from the healing process. For me this was a fairly easy process. Sleeping was uncomfortable because you can’t sleep on the SAVI side. I was very tired throughout, however, I tend to be tired in times of stress. The five days go by quickly. The daily treatments use up each day because they’re about 6 hours apart. I would repeat the procedure if cancer returns at another time and I’m a candidate. This is very doable. ❤

Hi Michelle, You did an excellent job with your video. I just went thru the entire process as you did. The team who took care of me was excellent. Just like you said, I had no pain during all of it but I took half of a pain pill the doctor subscribed for me each morning and each night. I’m now at home and I had my first shower today. Which was wonderful!! But, I realize now that my pain pills worked much more than I realized they did. Great Job Michelle!! I watched your video before and after. It helped my anxiety so much!!❤️

Hi Michelle, OMG thank you soooo much for this video. I'm getting surgery on the 22nd and then getting the savi treatment. I also suffer with anxiety and agoraphobia. The hospital will be my struggle. I'm going to keep a sleep mask on my eyes. Hoping this will help me not have as much anxiety.

Very informative, thank you for sharing.

Thank you so much for sharing your story!!! I'm having this put in Monday & was so nervous about it. Your story has made me feel so much better & calmed my nerves!!

I admire your courage and strength to share your story. I went through chemo and radiation 28 years ago . I had thyroid cancer and had my thyroids removed. I also have M.S.. I want you to know the fight/strength is within you. I am sending you prayers and lots of love. The one word of encouragement I want to give to you is "BELIEVE". May Gods love bless you always

Hey there! So I’m almost 3 weeks post SAVI treatment. The only difference in my story from yours is I was awake when they put the SAVI in me. The numbed me with a local anesthetic and it wasn’t bad at all! And I completely agree with how fast it is when they take it out and completely pain less. Modern medicine is incredible and I’m so thankful for it!!

Thank you so much for creating this video. I am in the process of deciding to choose this option and your information helped. You did a great job. Thank you again. Best to you Michele! ❤️

Hi Michelle. I just saw your story. How are you doing? Is the incision fully healed? Sending so much love, respect and admiration for your courage/strength.💖

Sending my prayers

Hi Michelle, I would love to connect with you! I'm recently diagnosed with DCIS and have not been offered this kind of radiation...Are you on Facebook?
