New diagnosis
Hi everyone I just wanted to say hi and introduce myself. I was diagnosed just before xmas .
Everything seems Very confusing as my diagnosis keeps changing! initially I started off with DCIS ( apparently the lucky cancer or so I was told) non invasive which has now progressed to include an invasive tumour.
I have just had my second wide incision on Tuesday trying to get clear margins.
Also there is now talk of chemo as my cancer is hormone negative. I have to wait till the 19th for my results. I think the waiting is one of the hardest aspects- of all of this!
There is so much to learn its a bit overwhelming . I hope to maintain some level of fitness throughout my treatment if for no other reason than it makes me feel happier :)
