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 ...
Well ladies it looks like I am up the creek with no paddle. Surgeon rang me yesterday to tell me that not only did they not get clear margins in the second surgery there was also another small cancer that hadn't shown up on any of the imaging I have had done i.e. CT scans, Ultrasound, MRI. So now it looks like it will be a mastectomy but my worry is if the cancer is not showing up on any of the scans it is quite possibly all through me and they wouldn't know. I am rapidly losing any faith in the medical team. After being told that the chemo had worked well and the tumour had shrunk and now finding out that there was more than they realised - so now I feel that the months of hell I went through with the chemo was a complete waste of time. Will not be doing that again.
