Hi all, its the new kid on the block here.
I had first specialist appointment yesterday. Had my "cheer squad' (husband and sister) in tow. After my appointment I had to have another breast scan to check a couple of lumps specialist wanted cleared. As suspected they turned out to be simple cysts. Had blood tests today, mammogram and CT scan to do Monday back to specialist Wednesday, booked for surgery Monday 20th August. My feet have not hit the ground. I can't believe I only found out about this on Friday! Talk about "rock my world!".
My specialist is female and quite clinical but seems quite competent. If I am looking for good bedside manner I have come to the wrong place.
I haven't cried in the past two days. Just the odd trickle down the cheek. Reading my "new online friends" accounts of what they are going through I am learning more and more. First thing - check everything. Second thing - check everything. Third thing - get another opinion. One good thing that has come out of this is that my daughter has finally "stepped up". That makes me feel really good!
The more I read and the more I research (now an expert!!) I have learned that most people these days now survive this alien inside.
Love hugs and cuddles to you all. Will keep you posted.
