First time operation
I have just had my first operation being a wide local excision and the lymph node removed for testing. But i have been lucky as the results came back with no cancer in the nodes. I go back on 21 dece...
Hi Snow,
Sorry you had to get bc to know about this site, but I can tell you it is such a comfort to have others who understand what you are going through. Great news that your lymph node was clear, sounds like your recovery is going well too. Try not to get caught up in the "what ifs", there will be plenty of time to think through what needs to happen next as you get all the info.
Use this time to renew your strength and enjoy life. It can be a great opportunity to spoil yourself - a weekend away, a massage, a girls day out. The wait can be stressful, so plan something good to do. I used that waiting time to have a family portrait taken and had a girls weekend away. I'm so glad now that I made the most of that time to build happy memories.
Here's hoping you won't need much ongoing treatment and that you will find much to celebrate this Christmas.
Kind regards, Tracey
