Wondering if this will ever be over
Not a good day today. I had a lumpectomy on Monday and went back to see the surgeon today only to find out that one of the margins was not great enough so am now scheduled for another surgery on the ...
Hi Suzy, I feel your frustration at going back for more surgery. My closest margin was 3mm, because nodes were clear surgeon didn't go back in. Now each new lump leaves me thinking, I wonder if that was too close. Believe me, the worst of your treatment IS over. If you've done 6 months of chemo, the hard yards are done, it all gets easier after that. Well done for persevering this far. Maybe over the Christmas break, you could just take some time out? No doctors visits, no appointments, no treatment. . . . maybe plan some looking after you time? You deserve it <3
