Could really use some inspiration from a positive experience

Thanks for the encouraging words @Mollygirl :)

@Brenda5 - I've actually got all my films and reports - I haven't left the imaging rooms without them - the only report I don't have is the biopsy report, which went straight to my Dr as he was interstate and wanted to call me as soon as he received them. Hoping to get a copy this week! 

thanks for the tips @Julesjourney - I'm afraid I've googled way too much already LOL - can't help myself! But now that I'm over the staging scans, I'm a bit more relaxed although I'm sure I'll be googling again as soon as I've seen my surgeon. You're right though - nothing beats this site! It's real info from real, amazing people, and the support here is absolutely incredible. I"m so grateful! 

Hi @arpie - all the best for your pathology results! My GP told me my cough could be due to reflux, but I don't have any other symptoms. They've found ILC in both sides (only a very tiny one in the RHS) so I'll probably be heading towards a bilateral mastectomy, but I haven't had my post-biopsy consult with the surgeon yet, so I'm hoping to get all the options and info sometime this week.  Thanks so much for the advice and tips. I am absolutely blessed with incredibly supportive friends and family - I haven't told anyone (apart from my husband and kids and one very close 'survivor' friend) - waiting for a treatment plan so I'll have all the answers to the million questions I know I'll get, plus hopefully I'll be able to have reassuring news for all of those people who will be in shock to hear - I hate the thought of causing my friends and family to worry. xx
