Thanks Margie @onemargie for your comments and hugs.
I ended up choosing to have both off, which was lucky as they found a tumor 1cm in my other breast that wasn't detected in my ultrasound.
I had my surgery on the 2nd May. I had 38 nodes (the lot) taken out on my right side, with 3 tumors ranging form 4cm to 2 cm in my right breast, like you I am triple negative.
On waking from my surgery my surgeon was telling me I need further scans ASAP due to the number of lymph nodes they removed, these scans showed it had metastasized is in my neck and liver, a recon is not even in my world of thoughts now.
I am waiting for my healing to finish to start chemo, should be in two more weeks if all goes according to plan
Oncologist advised me it is about living my life comfortable now, worst part is the waiting, now I have to wait and see if the Chemo works to shrink the 6 tumors in my liver and 2 tumors in my neck.
I am just wanting to get back into the ocean and enjoy everyday and be thankful for everyday now and try not stress over the outcome of my chemo or what my oncologist said to me.
Love light and happiness Shell xxxx
