So sorry to see you join our exclusive club and all the best with your Surgeon's appt tomorrow @DaniJ. Do you have someone to go with you as an extra set of ears and support? Consider recording the meeting on your phone, as it is very difficult to remember all that is said.
Hopefully you will have a Breast Care Nurse as backup/support as well - sometimes they sit in on your appts with you - and help arrange other appts & explain stuff to you.
Your surgeon will guide you re your choices of surgery - I had a lumpectomy, skipped chemo & had Radiation & now hormone tablets. My 5 year Mammogram/Ultrasound checkup is in a week or so.
Where abouts are you? If you add your Town/suburb to your profile, we may have members nearby who can point you to services available to you xx. You could also catch up for a coffee & a chat, now the covid restrictions have lifted (with care .... )
Feel free to check out this post - lots of info re the forum & also link to what to take to hospital with you & 'tick lists' that may help with your ongoing medical appointments .....
