Hi, I am 60 going on 45, had a recent mastectomy, and now like Debbie have to make a decision between Tamoxifen and Anastrozole - Aromastase Inhibitor. I have read and re-read many times all the inf...
Hi Janey, thanks for your reply, can I ask why you chose to have the tissue transfer method as opposed to having implants put in? also how long was your recovery from the operation? were ther any side effects? What is revision surgery?
I printed out the info ont he link you gave me, I really appreciate all your advice and support I will ask my surgeon when I see him next week as if they can target where the cancer cellls may be in my lymph nodes then why not do that rather then taking majority of my nodes. I read up on lymphoedma and boy some of the images are a bit scary.
I am so excited for you as well to be able to have the final piece of the puzzle sorted out this year, you know what that will be here before you know it.
I was alot calmer yesterday after my appointment with the surgeon on Tuesday, I am a bit of a stress head/ control freak/ analytical person where I like to have plans for everything so this journey has been interesting for me as I cant plan or predict or think about what may happen until I am there, its definately been a learning curve for me.
thankyou again Mazamataz
