2nd margin excision success
Yesterday I went back for my report re 28JAN margin excision surgery.
Tears came when the report said : CLEAR.
I can feel all the hurray and cheers from my friends and sisters overseas through Whatapps.
Dr Rafei said You don't need anymore "cut", I'll see you 3 months later, I'll leave this to Onco & Breast care nurse for you. Your file will be discuss next day morning, if Chemo - a struggle - for you, radiotherapy schedule..... etc.
My initial surgery was on 9DEC, 15mm+1/3 lymph nodes found DCIS.
1st proposal was to take off the whole log of lymph nodes, a week later Surgeon team changed their mine of just doing margin excision, and now it's clear.
I had a feeling, it's gone, it's settled.
I have to go back next week to meet the Nurse of my further treatment schedule. I wonder can I get rid of the follow up treatment schedule, I dont want chemo, I dont want all the side effect, I dont want radiotherapy, I dont want my skin burnt........
