Breast Cancer

Am newly diagnosed with breast cancer (yesterday) and have first appointment with oncologist/surgeon on Tuesday. What can I expect vis a vis surgery (extent, discomfort, etc.) and follow up? Presumably lump will be removed, what kind of post op can I expect? Where can I get additional information re follow up treatment such as radiation and chemo? Also, am an alcoholic so narcotics are off the list of drugs for pain management. How has pain management after surgery been accomplished without the use of narcotics?BB All help most appreciated.
