Hi there. 17th December was the day I found my breast lump in 2015 but I managed to get a biopsy on the 19th organised through the emergency dept (as I knew everything was closing down) i didn't get my results until the 29th due to public holidays so that was very stressful. I had to attend a funeral in this time of my sister in law who had died of cancer and just not tell anybody as it wasn't the appropriate time. It was an extremely difficult tine. Once results back it all happened quickly after that.
I guess they informed you in case you had a planned holiday...which many people do at this time and wanted you to be available as soon as they re-opened.
If they called you on this date and you were away...well you'd have been asking why they didn't notify you before Xmas. It's always tricky knowing whats the right call.
I must say I hadn't heard this version of almonds...only soy. In the end I just follow the concept of fresh foods are best where possible. That includes freshly cooked so I know what's in it. (I do freeze my own cooking though)
I'm trying to reduce my animal fats intake as the aramatose inhibitors has pushed my cholesterol up so that has been tricky as most alternatives are soy or beans. Moderation is key I guess. I developed lactose intolerance after chemo...so that has made me rethink my dairy. Some days my head just hurts with all the do's and don'ts abd conflicting advise.
I might add...no specialist has ever suggested I restrict my diet in potential phytoestrogens, which I find interesting given all the warnings on google.
