Early XMAS present
Two days before xmas I was dx with multi lobular cancer Estrogen positive. I have had a Mastectomy left breast with tissue expander mid jan ( my tissue expander feels like it's going to burst) and ...
So sorry for your diagnosis. I wanted to reinforce what others have said, get your arm measured before you start radiation so you have a base point of reference. I didn't, and physios have said how useful it would have been if I had.
Also good news you don't have to have chemo, in my experience radiation is easier. It's not a walk in the park with tiredness and possibly burnt skin but nevertheless easier than chemotherapy. Plus you don't lose your hair etc.
Wishing you you the best of luck. Karen
