Hello Unicornkisses, sorry to hear your have joined our group but you will also find so much knowledge and support here. I can just imagine your frustration in having to wait for what must feel an eternity, especially during Christmas. From my diagnosis (routine mammogram) to surgery was 11 days and I just couldn't wait to get the cancer out of me! My doctor told me that if I needed time to weigh up surgery options, to go home and think about it for a couple of weeks & it wouldn't make any difference to the cancer in that time. Although you said you had stage 2 IDC, you will have a clearer understanding of your cancer post op once your results come through. The specialist at Breastscreen told me that he expected my IDC would be between a grade 2 & 3. Ended up being only grade 1, so nothing is certain until you get your full histology report.
Waiting is dreadful but you will feel soooo much better when you have a treatment plan. I hope the next 10 days go quickly for you, that you are able to find some peaceful and happy moments.
Let us know how you are doing and don't forget we are all here for you. Jane xx
