Update
So I sacked my surgeon I just couldn't stomach the thought of him coming anywhere near my body. I cancelled today's surgery. Told him bluntly in writing that I was unhappy with the standard of care I received, got a fluffy response!
I got a second opinion and have just come home from a further ultrasound and biospsy from a different area on the left breast at 6 o'clock x seven core samples, this should have been done before initial surgery like OMG! I go back to new specialist early next week he is so lovely and really looking out for me and thorough.
The pathology results from today will determine the surgery treatment plan. I must commend the breast cancer care nurses for organising the second opinion and supporting me at the appointment. I am also so grateful for the BCNA nurse counsellor for her support and advice. And finally all of you for your kind words, support and encouragement to stand up for myself I couldn't have done this without you.
The saga continues I will be pursuing the legal route when I have a bit more energy and have sorted my health.
This isn't the end of this journey unfortunately so I'll keep you all posted.
Well done, it takes guts to do this, and I agree you cannot go through this with somebody that you don't trust and has already mucked up the first go. Wishing you well with your new surgeon hugs Cheryl xx
