Hi @Geenahfb Sorry to hear of your diagnosis to date but glad you have found this site. Still very early days for you and perhaps feeling pretty spun out. I had lumpectomy and sentinel node biopsy almost a year ago followed by radiation. Once your full pathology comes back you will then have a plan and way forward. Scarey stuff and waiting is hard. It is as you say "time freezes" and the mind goes numb. I found it helpful to have support with me in the early discussions and also wrote things down because words and phrases will get thrown around and you will begin to learn a whole new language and get a personal road map for planet BC. I hope you have been told about and ordered your free Breast Kit from BCNA. It is a wealth of info. You will find a lot of support here with so many varied outcomes and there will be places you will cross roads with others.
In the meantime, take a deep breath, and if looking for general information there is lots here and other reputable sites. All the best for the 23rd. hugs.
