MDTs for my professor happen bi weekly, so that will be 10 days from now. My Breast Nurse is pushing for a referral to oncology over the next few days though, given chemo is indicated.
One of my margins was extremely close so I think chest wall radiation is going to be required as well.. which then brings in the issue of reconstruction problems but that’s a different story for a year down the track!
i also decided to go through with IVF for anyone wondering. Started yesterday but then my bloods came back that I ovulated (despite being given a shot of zoladex! My IVF Dr did that because tone is limited and he didn’t want to wait for my natural cycle) which is quite uncommon apparently as per fertility nurse. So on hold now until Tuesday.
oh and my post op notes stated axillary clearance- prof ended up taking everything.
I have bounced back incredibly well - youth I think is helping here. Minor setback yesterday some redness appearing so I’ve gone on so antibiotics. Fingers crossed it doesn’t worsen.
Happy Friday 😃😃
