Feeling very stressed and worried
Hello everyone, I have just been diagnosed with DCIS in three areas of one breast. I feel sick to the stomach and extremely worried. Have an appointment with surgeon on 8/4 to discuss mastectomy and...
@Milly65 Take deep breaths first. Recon can be delayed, they do not have to do it at the same time but there is a longer wait if you decide to have it done later, approx six months I think. I stayed flat one sided. I had two weeks of appointments and tests everyday as soon as I was diagnosed which was overwhelming. The problem is, being diagnosed in the first place is overwhelming so making decisions is a challenge. Go out for dinner, have a massage, then try to think things through. Big hugs
