Mastectomy 42 triple negative diagnosis
Hi everyone
I was diagnosed on the 3rd of August I live in the south west of WA.First up I think you ladies are amazing and so very supportive.
I am a 42 yr old sole parent with a 15 and 18 yr old son,previously always a working mumma.
My eldest son has Bi Polar type 1 and my my 21 yr marriage broke down in Oct 2016,life has been pretty tough.
But I have previously been able to muster a lot of strength and courage and plan on doing this again.
I have just had a right mastectomy and auxiliary node clearance last week.I have the triple negative factor and I am desperately wanting to connect with others who have this diagnosis.I have infiltrate lobular carcinoma original tumour was approximately 57mm’s but has turned out to be an odd shape and had a second adjoining tumour very similar size immediately behind the first one.
My mammogram was clear it was picked up in the breast ultrasound and then in more detail by the MRI.
My only symptom was a slightly inverted right nipple.
I am waiting for my results for
lymph node involvement until the 1 St October and treatment plan. I have an extremely supportive mother who lost her youngest sister to breast cancer at 40 yrs old 22 years ago.
I have a wonderful group of friends,while I still struggle with the diagnosis I am committed to treatment and wellbeing and where ever possible supporting others.
Thankyou in advance for reading my post I believe knowledge is power and support from those within this circle is so very important.Which in turn I would alsways offer :)
