Feeling very stressed and worried

You're in one of the hardest parts of treatment now - waiting to find out what is going to happen.  You're probably swinging between despair, fear and numbness but if you can distract yourself, you'll find things a bit easier.  While you will no doubt want to get ahead with things, discuss with your surgeon whether there is a need to rush decisions.  I started with a wide excision and then had to go back in for a mastectomy.  Radiation was always on the cards so the surgeon refused to consider a reconstruction before 12 months post-surgery to allow everything to settle down.  I'm now up to that time and still am undecided about it as the thought of more treatment is too hard.  So don't feel pressured but do ask what the options are and what the pros and cons will be.  If money is an issue, talk to your surgeon about it - he/she will be the one co-ordinating your treatment.  And be aware that radiotherapy is not covered by private health cover.  Take care.
