Primek, my surgeon said to consider the surgery during chemo.
But I am not sure what options I have now. As I have to have radiation, after the mastectomy, doesn't that limit my options?
I didn't think I cared about a mastectomy but now I have had a reduction on the other side it seems a pity not to do something on the right.
And by then it might be nice to do something just to make me feel good?
and then again, do I trust the whole mammogram and ultrasound system enough to leave the left breast on anyway?
the positivity goes up and down, along with my emotions.
mostly I just feel sick.
but I guess that will pass and I will just get on with it again.
my husband and I had booked a cruise in two weeks time, before all this happened.
We are going on it and will try not to think too much about cancer.
I can't go swimming, but I sure can enjoy all the pampering, no cooking, no cleaning.
Then back to the Chemo and onto the cancer roller coaster once again.
