Feelings and waiting..
I like to write for my own therapy and figured here would be a good place to do it - for validation, to help others maybe, and just knowing I'm in an environment that understands this roller coaster. ...
It’s bizarre, but a good thing, what can make us happy!! I was mightily relieved to find that an irregular heartbeat (as opposed to the regular irregularity I’d had for decades) wasn’t going to do me in either! Everyone has to find out what feels best for them regarding breast surgery - it will depend to an extent on what is recommended and what can be done now and what can be done later. Unfortunately, what someone else prefers or chooses may not feel right for us, so ultimately the decision is up to you. But it’s worth remembering that one option is to do the necessary surgery as soon as recommended and wait to decide about reconstruction. A conference of doctors is usually useful - makes sure that everyone knows all the bits of different information. Best wishes for your oncology appointment.
