Well I am back home after my double mastectomy and bilateral sentinel node biopsies.  I was given a Prevena negative pressure bandage rather than drains which is going well. Feeling good.

I read your post, so sorry to hear about the right breast :( big hugs to you. Glad that surgery is done. Doing a single mastectomy is hard, doing two is way harder esp after 6 chemos (I am done with my 4 chemo and it's taken its toil definitely so I think you are very strong), so take good care of yourself and eat well to recover. On another note, so glad you found the pre-cancer cells on the other side very early, and that it's pre-cancer! Could I ask why you had a MRI done? I was asking my oncologist what tests should be done after chemo and he says done. However, I did have left mastectomy before chemo so mine was adjuvant chemo and I think yours is neo-adjuvant, so that's why you had a scan? I am only meant to have scans (ultrasound and mammo) on my anniversary which is Dec 17. xxx

Sending you a huge hug. Delays are never easy but delays because you're waiting on results are the hardest. Wishing you all the best Ang. Xx

@jadziatoo I just wanted to send you the biggest hug, because I KNOW what a hell of a shock all of this is to you. No words can take any of it away, but know that you are heard and you are so very supported here with all of us! We get it! Deep breath and like Share (Sheryl) said, its pre cancerous, so you are in such a great position. Deep breath, one thing and one step at a time is the best thing I could ever say to you, because its so easy to get overwhelmed and swept away, so back to this moment and then the next. Thinking of you xo Melinda 

Keeping my fingers crossed for your biopsy.

Thanks for updating us. Thoughts are with you. 

Hi all,
Well, my breast surgeon said that I will be having a mastectomy on my left breast. He wants to do a core biopsy to confirm the pre cancerous cells on the right. So he will hold off on surgery until all the results are in. I have another appointment in a couple of weeks. Thanks for all your support.

Hi Ang,
Sorry to hear about your results. I wish none of us had to go through this. Thinking of you and wishing you the best.
