Another step forward ... so pleased for you Meg. And to have thoughtful medical staff caring for you at a time when another sleepless night is one too many - is a blessing.
Re:- Multidisciplinary Team (aka MDT) ... I live in far north Qld, and my Breast Cancer Care Nurse often refers to the MDT suggested this and discussed that - and I too found it most reasuring to learn. There is literally a round table discussion, with my results / images etc, passed around and options are evaluated and debated, with the demography of the patient paramount (ie. I am 49 yrs of age, live 1.5km from hospital, have 3 young children etc etc). The treatment and consideration I have received as a BC patient is overwhelmingly positive .... and it appears that you are receiving the same - wonderful !
I am counting the sleeps until my bilateral mastectomy on 30 July ... and your operation date is not far away either. All the very best x
