Thank you ladies great information for me to take on board. I really appreciate being able to hear from you guys.
I know I should probably take it one day at a time but I need to know my options and their impacts. Guess it’s just the type of person I am lol.
The portacath sounds brilliant for giving my arms a break...yes I have had a double mastectomy, right side breast with two Timor’s <2cm and spread to right side lymph nodes found one Tumor. So I had 6 nodes removed from my right arm and the sentinel node removed from my left side but left side is cancer cleared.
Now im worried about having to be carful with my arms... bloody shithouse lol this cancer bomb keeping snowballing into multiple complex layers... I’m still laughing tho cause it’s how I roll... but can’t gelp but feel a tad ripped off lol.
I am not entirely 100% of my diagnosis yes they have told me along with 1000 other things. But I do know I am ER & PR positive but Her2 negative.
I live in Southport QLD.
Yes my surgeon told me about my chemo, hormone and radiation. He is part of my multidisciplinary team at Robina public treating me. I really love him, so good, straight to the point confident in all executions plus caring bedside manner.
I have begun my IVF treatment to preserve my eggs before chemo that surgery is in a few weeks.
I would prefer not to have any bloods taken in any of my arms but if feet ain’t popular then I will until I get the portacath put in. Do my exercises get compression gear and be careful & prey until then.
Ok how how do I join the young women discussion groups too?
Can i I just say god this forum is heaven sent, I’ve seriously felt super isolated since this began and having strong women assist me with explaining this process to me really makes me feel connected.
So thank you again.
Hope you guys have a great weekend
