Re: Rash
Thank you all so much for your replies. Zoffiel, would you believe the surgeon, the 'locum' oncologist (mine away on holidays), the bc nurse and the GP had no idea what the rash was. Finally I went back to GP who confirmed what it was.
Feeling very nervous about starting chemo tomorrow. Just can't believe I have all this ahead of me again. Appreciation all your kind support.

Re: Confused with my diagnose.
They call it locally advanced breast cancer if more than 5. But the staging will be explained later if you ask.
This link is great at explaining simply and should put your mind at ease.

Re: Cancer spread to liver.
@wendy55 thank you. I wonderful to hear you doing well after 5 years. I had written myself when I found out. Finding it hard to stay positive at the moment. I need to remind myself I am living with cancer not dying from it. Thank you for your post it helps so much hearing stories like yours.
Re: Tattoos to cover breast surgery scars
I recently had a tattoo where my nipple used to be on my left breast from a lumpectomy 5 years ago. The tattoo is the same colour as my other areola but it's in the shape of a love heart. I didn't really want a replacement nipple but wanted something to symbolise my journey, which I discovered was a journey about self love.
I love it and it looks really cool.
Happy to share my story if that's appropriate.

Re: Your day in three songs.
My records (yes, I'm ancient - I have vinyl) have sat unplayed for years @zoffiel as the turntable is cactus. In fact, I'm about to sell the lot because they just sit there and I can't contemplate having to move them one day. However, my kids have got me onto Spotify recently and I have rediscovered so many of my old (and new) favourites. It's funny but the kids have mostly groaned at my musical choices - my 16yo son is starting to groove to some of them, now.
