Oh @Eastmum, I'm so sorry you are here. But, you'll get lots of support here.
I was diagnosed with triple negative grade 3 tumour last April. Had lumpectomy, nodes out (clear) five months of chemo the in November bil mastectomies no recon, no radiation. I'm now in recovery still and plan to return to work end March.
Can I just say the early days are bloody horrendous. Not knowing what's going to happen, makes you feel like your world is spinning out of control. So... Back up the truck. Try not to look to far ahead. Just focus on each next step, scan, consult etc. it's too overwhelming to look at everything as a whole.
Scans, follow the preparation advice exactly, try and focus on being as calm ( yeah I know right!) during your scans for the best clearest pics.
As soon as you get a breast care nurse discuss everything with her. They are a wonderful support and have so much knowledge.
And, of course come on here often, ask us lots, we are here for you. Biggest, biggest hugs. Bec xxoo
