The best thing about DCIS @Elle_V92 is that it is the earliest form of cancer detected. And it is 'in situ', meaning it hasn't spread out of the duct. It's contained. So comfort yourself with the knowledge that you're on it super early and that it hasn't developed into a tumour. And although it seems odd to us, there really isn't any immediate urgency with a diagnosis unless the doctors say so. Trust that if you needed to be operated on quickly you would be.
The mantra here is 'one day at a time'. One hour at a time if necessary. Try to keep yourself busy/distracted/entertained. And engage in some stress busting activity. Yoga, walks, meditation, baking, whatever your relaxation thing is.
And come on here whenever you need to. We're here for you. K xox
