Laura
Hi, my name is Laura and I am 34 years old and have just been diagnosed with Breast Cancer for the 2nd time. I am hoping to communicate/meet people who are experiencing similar feelings and emotions as I am

- I've got all my results, had to have a re-excision of the original lumpectomy because of involved margins. The second excision had a close margin with DCIS and the breast MDT decided not to re-operate but just to monitor closely. That made me as nervous as hell as I wanted another excision to be sure it was all gone as I'll be damned if I'm going up do all this again in 12 months! So I spent the weekend fretting about it and then this morning my oncologist (bless her) says yeah! We'll just get you in for a re-excision when chemo is finished! Easy. Done. Sorted!! I would happily let them take whatever is required, my surgeon however is a little on the conservative side! All my results are in and I have (had) an aggressive, fast growing tumour which my onc thinks has only been there for about 6 months. This is scary but at the same time comforting because the more aggresive a cancer the better it responds to chemo and I figure the less time it's been there the less time it's had to spread. I'm also ER/PR and HER2 +ve so I have more treatment options open to me too. Hope you're doing ok chick. xxx Dan xxx
Thanks Dan and thinking of you. When do you get your path results lovey?
- Aaaaah lovey. These things are sent to try us. I spent a crap weekend worrying about my pathology. Thank god for my oncologist who is a legend! Keep your chin up chick, better to get it all now than to have to go through this again in 12 months time. Big hugs babe xxx
Good afternoon my pink sisters, well after having had my surgery Wednesday week ago, I have the results, which weren't what I was hoping for... My surgeon, Dr Hoffmann has recommended me to have a single mastectomy and recon. The thoughts and emotions that are running through my mind are out of control! Like everyone, I am having good and bad days and am hanging out for this nightmare to be done and dusted.... FOREVER..... anyway, I just wanted to go "BLAH" and let you all know that you are all in my thoughts everyday xox
