Test results :( yet another curve ball
OK got test results from surgery today and am feeling hmmm, well, gutted.Grade 2, 1.6cm in size bigger than we thought it would be and low grade pre-cancer margin around it. Back to surgery Sept 13 as the margin was too close. Chemo was discussed but fortunately i have dodged that bullet. Tamoxifen will be started at some point. Radiation is still on the table depending on whether the margin is going to be a clear 2mm. If clear i may be eligible for this radiotherapy multi gene assay trial to determine whether i need radiation treatment or not. If margin comes back close again all that flies out the window. My husband's radical prostatectomy is early Sept before i go back in and our youngest daughter who complained of pain on her left side, is off for an ultrasound for cyst(s) on her left ovary next week. She lost her right ovary last year due to a cyst the size of a grapefruit. She's 21. I'm just..I don't know...feeling stunned and over whelmed by everything.
