A surprise diagnosis
I was diagnosed on 21st September after a regular mammogram and had a lumpectomy last Fri. Recovering at home. Feeling ok - now awaiting diagnosis and next steps
I'm fine, thank you xx I hope you've recovered well @Monibear?
Have you had discussions about lympodema yet? Hopefully with a lumpectomy, you shouldn't need it, but it is an area to be aware of (swelling in the arm of the surgery.)
All the best with your Appts next week xx .. do you have a good buddy to take with you as support (and an extra set of ears?). Consider recording it too, so you can go over it later on at home if you want to.
take care
