So that just happened. OMG!!!
Everything has happened so quickly. Found a lump friday before last, Mammogram/ Ultrasound / Core biopsy and Fna lymph node all done within 4 days and now the breast surgeon has me scheduled for 20/9....
Hi Gerryb, I feel for you. I couldn't believe how quickly everything moved from core biopsy 13/7, diagnosis 20/7 to surgery 1/8! Just 2 weeks. But once I knew there was a cancer inside me, I wanted it out asap! The whole thing felt like a dream, or should I say nightmare! Everything is out of our control and we have no choice but to basically hand our bodies over to others. Privacy and modesty is gone. Yes, there is information overload from the specialists, but I ordered the "my journey" kit and felt so much better having the info presented in such a clear way. Great for keeping track of appointments and expenses too. My specialist provided me with a post op bra in hospital and I ordered another from Berlei. Sending you my best wishes - you will be stronger than you could imagine. Jane xx
