This is the latest and I do feel a lot calmer today and more informed thanks to my wonderful GP and the nurse I see in Oncology.
Yesterday I went to the GP to have my flu and pneumonia shots and explained everything that had happened so far and all that I had been told in the surgical consult. He was quite concerned as some of it was conflicting (his words). He wrote an email to the Head of Breast Surgery and sent it while I was in his office, followed up with a call . He also gave me a big hug when I was leaving, bless him I needed that. :)
When I came home I got a call back from the nurse and we went over everything, she was able to tell me that I am having a wide local excision not a masectomy (at this stage) and will have the sentinal node biopsy done the day before surgery.
An ultrasound will be done before the surgery not on the day as the trainee said.
I am triple negative, so no I won't be having hormone treatment as he told me. The Surgeon will call me next week to outline my plan and answer any questions that I may still have and arrange a consultation with him if needed, and yes he is doing the surgery so pheww :)
Thankyou, thankyou, thankyou to all you lovely ladies for the support,
