Thanks everyone, I am feeling calmer and hoping that the Pre admission Clinic and the consultation with a real 'Surgeon" on Monday will clear up any questions that I have. I didn't feel like I was being unreasonable, I just needed to know what to expect regarding the surgery and the plan going forward.
Beryl, I think my GP meant the passive comment as a compliment, english is his second language. He clarified it with being too accepting / trusting of them and he was adamant that I have rights and should not be made to feel powerless.
I think he is a very unique person as he has many breast cancer patients ( male and female) that he treats. I believe he truly understands the impact that this sucky disease has on people's bodies and souls, he did say that he has heard many tales similar to mine :(
I will let you all know what happens Monday, bitch face may just have a glass of wine tonight haha
I cannot thank everyone enough for mulling this over with me and giving me ideas. I do hope that not many other women have to go through this bs on top of BC. I have learnt a valuable lesson, don't just accept everything because they are the professionals, ask questions.
