Back In Shock Again.

Hi Vicki, Devastating to have to get your head around a different surgery than initially planned. The good thing however is that this has been picked up prior to surgery rather than after it and while it is like a form of mental torture you will come to terms with this change, it is doable. I was initially told I was 100% having chemo, aggressive tumor, possibly radiotherapy. I did have a mastectomy with immediate reconstruction using implant, pathology came back completely different than was expected. No chemo, no radiotherapy, tamoxifen. I felt that I was being setup for a recurrence, but I wasn't. It was explained treatments would do far more damage to me at this stage than just being monitored and I now am completely greatful to my excellent team for giving me the best treatment designed for me and my needs, and my new boob is sensational. Wishing you all the very best, and if you want to ask questions I'm sure we will be able to answer them and hopefully help you calm your fears and settle your mind (at least a little bit). Xx Cath
