Thanks for all the comments!
Plus the links to the reconstruction page. It really is helpful.
I've had a break from it all for last few days just getting on with work and some chilling out time...and now just getting back to my now reality, researching and decisions.
I do have MRI now booked for next Monday. And then the consult with the surgeon on Wednesday...to get the low down and find out more of what my options are, plus suss out the private vs public with him etc...
I am feeling I would want the immediate reconstruction if possible, (and getting my head around the bilateral mastectomy option as my possibility - ( a friend from my swimming group said - barbie boobs! - which made me laugh! )...but will find out more about the benefits of delaying it for later or not. Costs etc.
I have also started on the Tamoxifen this week...so bracing myself for any upcoming side effects etc... :#
I have given up my 20 year? habit of alcohol and coffee a few weeks ago. Plus eating much healthier...so I am feeling much better! - I think...? And hopefully that should help with what is still ahead..
I do have a Breast Care Nurse who has been great, and whenever I do speak to her I feel so much better...I typically try to manage things myself (and even find typing on forums really hard!) and haven't really rang or emailed her much...But I should and will embrace her knowledge and support a bit more...
Thank you all xx :)
