Hello everyone, I hope I am in the right place to post.
I am new here, new to breast cancer - looking forward (not) to my mastectomy on Monday morning and can't wait to get out of hospital, find a prosthesis and get back to a near normal life. Don't even know if I will require chemo/other treatment.
Am a little afraid of the wait to find out the prognosis from the lymph glands. Everyone tells me not to worry, and wait until I come to that bridge. However the waiting is so nerve wrecking.
I am sooo grateful for this network and a place I can blog to my heart's content about my journey. I NEVER thought this would happen to me and was in denial. I am still in a somewhat post shock state and just want all this to be over.
However, I want to spread the news to other women to PLEASE GO AND HAVE A FREE BREAST SCAN. When ever I found a lump in my breast, it never cost me anything. I am now 52 and went because my doctor nagged me into it. I don't know how to thank her. Without her nagging, I would have left it until perhaps it was too late.
Thank you for being here - BCNA.
