Last 4 weeks of chemo then mastectomy-feeling low
I am not really newly diagnosed but still have quite a ways to go to finish treatment so thought I would post on this forum. I was diagnosed in June and had a lumpectomy and wide node clearance a week...
@cory51 I'm glad that you're feeling a bit more at ease with things. I had a mastectomy in January (after a wide excision in December) and I'm still undecided about reconstruction. The exercise group I go to had a breast reconstruction nurse out to talk to us on Friday - my feeling at the end is that I'm not happy with the idea of having reconstruction surgery and I'm not happy with the idea of not having it. So, who knows?
Mind you, I did find the excision/mastectomy the easiest part of the treatment to deal with.
