Thank you.
Not happy to be here but happy to be surrounded by others who know the feelings and have walked the path before me.
A bit about me: I’m 38 with a gorgeous husband and three beautiful kids. Our family is all complete, with our youngest heading off to school this year. We were all getting ready for living our life of happy when I got the diagnosis. The 31st December, I was diagnosed with Grade 3 invasive carcinoma in my left breast. It’s quite a large lump at 5x4x2cm so talk has been that I will have some neoadjuvent chemo first before surgery.
I made contact with a breast care nurse and she walked me through my diagnosis and let me know that my cancer is a triple positive so although it’s aggressive, there is specialised treatment for it with herceptin. There was also enlarged axillary nodes found on my ultrasound but no biopsy done for that so that needs to be checked as well.
I feel like I’ve been waiting forever when In reality, it has been 12 days! I just want to get something happening. I’m sure that’s a normal response. Anyway, I have my first MDT meeting next Thursday so hopefully I’ll have some more answers then.
Thanks for the welcome and love to all others going through this. Xo
