38yo solo mama, what is happening?!
Hi everyone. I was diagnosed yesterday, a month after my first random trip to my sons gp where I asked her to just give her opinion. Right breast invasive ductal carcinoma. I’m sure that will start ...

I'm terribly sorry for your recent diagnosis.
And it is a shame the GP wasn't well informed.
I'm in SA, so not much help, sorry.
I was very proactive after finding my lump.
I had a Mastectomy with axillary clearance 10 days after finding it.
This was with the Private system. Lucky for me the Breast surgeon, saw me 2 days after the find.
Mine was Invasive Ductal Breast cancer. Stage 2 and Grade 3. I have no regrets with my treatments.
Surgery, Chemo and R/T
Grade 3 is the faster growing type. I had a Mammogram 9 months prior.
I hope that you are seen quickly in the Public System, or some one possibly on this site knows a Breast Surgeon in your area.
I had delayed Reconstruction, and very happy with that.
