Just diagnosed but cannot even contact a surgeon until 9th January. Stress levels high.
I received by biopsy results on Christmas Eve, stage 2 invasive ductal carcinoma. GREAT! I was given a referral which was marked urgent and sent to the surgeon and told to call them on 28th December....
&@?!#*%€¥£!!!!!.
surgeons visit tonight.
wounds healing well. New boobs look good but very bruised.
Pathology report!!!!!
surgeon said it took her completely by surprise.
1.9mm 11oclock major lump extends over a 90mm area with satellite cancer cells all through the sample.
5mm supposedly benign 7 o'clock lump taken out as a precaution, IDC with entire sample full of satellite cancer cells.
another DCIS 10mm from large cancer
2 lymph glands removed, 1 has 3mm metastasis.
need to start Chemo ASAP, then mastectomy then radiation.
all are Estrogen 3+ and Progesterone 3+
HER2 negative
I understand the cancer results I think but not the hormone numbers.
but I guess that means hormone therapy as well?
so much for early stage best case senario.
I guess I write this year off then!
full body scan planned for next week.
shit, shit , shit!!!!!!!!!
