6 week whirlwind.
Hi all
I am brand new to the community.
A bit about me:
I recently turned '40', and did not foresee that this would be the next major life event for me. I have 2 children, 18 yr old daughter, 10 yr old son, partner, dog and I work full time.
The last 6 weeks have been a whirlwind.
I found a lump on my upper breast after rubbing an aching shoulder. After the scans, tests, biopsies, I was diagnosed in June 2022 with Invasive Ductal Carcinoma Grade 2. My primary tumour was 23mm x 22mm. Last week I had breast conserving surgery. I am now awaiting results from surgery and will discuss next treatment decisions at my upcoming appointment.
I have shown little emotion about my diagnosis and still a bit numb to it all, even after surgery.
I look forward to sharing and learning from your stories.
Take care x
