Hi again!
Yes I have to add 'ban Dr Google'...........I found out the hard way, that this can lead to panic and major freak out - stuff you don't need. Keep your chin up and don't be afraid to ask questions (I usually go to the onc with a little list, tucked just inside my handbag!) hang in there girl! x x x Josie

Hi lanilumps71
Welcome, but sorry to hear that you are also on this "journey" like us.
I hope your surgery goes well on the 26th. And you will fight this, just like us all here.
We all go through the denial stage and can't believe it's me. But you will find out what stage, grade etc you will be after the surgery.
Lovely to hear that you will be a grandmother very soon. Something to focus on, and I am sure a big distraction. Keep us posted....
Just ask questions here anytime day or night. As there is always someone here to answer your questions no matter how small.
Just take one day at a time. Don't get too ahead of yourself. And just go with the flow. You will have good and bad days, but just remember that there is an end to all this. And you will get better.
I was diagnosed on March 2012, had my surgery and 20 lymph nodes removed - all cancerous. Having chemo at the moment , having in total 12 sessions and then 30 sessions of radiation. After treatment finished having hormone replacement and operation to remove ovaries. Have completed 5 sessions of chemo so far, so still a way to go. A long road still to go and always asking questions.
You will find out what surgery you will need to have and what treatment needed. So ask heaps of questions on Friday.
Hope all goes well and will be thinking of your
Love and hugs Julie XX

Hi Lanilumps,
Congratulations - what a wonderful way to be distracted while you wait for your results tomorrow - seeing your beautiful new granddaughter and soaking up the happiness around her.
I will be thinking of you tomorrow, and on the 26th when you have your surgery. (I had bilateral mastectomies in April - nowhere near as bad as I thought it would be - I just wanted it GONE as thoroughly and as fast as possible). When you have your results and a plan of action, you will feel you much more control. Hurdle 1 - surgery - and just take one hurdle at a time so you don't get overwhelmed. We all know what you are going through and are here for you.
Let us know your results tomorrrow - fingers crossed for you -
Love and hugs, Michelle xx
