Wow this is harder to type than i thought, I was delivered that dreaded news last Monday the 22/2 that i have Invasive Ductal Carcinoma, as you all can imagine my head is spinning, although after 2 m...
Great that they got it so early, my lump was 9mm, so not much different from yours. We has private health so I went private for my surgeon, he was highly recommended and luckily I have no other surgery bit if I needed to I knew he was going to give me good options etc. with my chemo I also went private, the only out of pocket was my $250 excess. I like the private chemo ward as been always very punctual and has a concistent nursing staff. Private also allowed me to do cold capping. I'm yet to do radio, so not sure which path I will take there.
best of luck with your lumpectomy and I hope your pathology report is one that maybe at the most requires radio and no chemo.
