On the Roller Coaster

Hi xpataus, Welcome!!! I too had decided that my lump was a cyst but like yourself my cunning plan didn't work out that way!! I cannot begin to imagine the additional stress of having the mammography machine breakdown when your due to have the test done the next day. I totally love the idea of the universe getting rid of your debris, my nan used to say that if your on a bad stretch there is nothing but good around the next corner, so look out for all the new friends and very possibly the love of your life!!! Woohoo!!! I also had a left mastectomy (skin,nipple saving)  but had immediate reconstruction with implant and will have the other side enhanced to match next year with some fat grafting from stomach to breasts and look forward to having two perkies and a flat stomach :) So glad for you that you are surrounded by loving family and wishing you all the best with your chemo and further treatment. Xx Cath
