@viking1 perhaps ask your surgeon how long can this be delayed. Whenever I had a problem the breast care nurses were pretty good with advice.
Generally my experience and what I have read and heard is treatment starts as soon as possible. I am fairly big breasted and the lumpectomy is not really that noticeable.
As for disappearing my wish. Having cancer does not knock you out totally you can still function. Some ladies even continue working. Embrace the journey. We are not lucky to have cancer but gee we are so lucky to be treated here
I have nothing but respect and admiration for all the crew that looked after me.
