Hi lanai lumps, the waiting is agonizing.
Everything seems to happen so slowly, but perhaps the 26th will be to discuss the outcome of the scans etc, and treatment from then.
I was diagnosed 12 June after biopsy and scans. It was a week until results were available.. This is when you'll get the pathology report ( or you doctor will). I asked for a copy and researched everything on it. I found this really helped with my understanding of the situation for when I met with the surgeon. You may have been given the number of a breast care nurse who you can contact even before you see the surgeon, or after for further clarification on things. I found that helpful too, discussing details with someone in the know was great.
Just remember to check the currency of the info you find as there is some older info out there, and some treatments have advanced.
I am in nowhere land right now too, waiting for the second surgery as they did not get clear margins, and have not heard from the oncologist yet.
If you are really worried, maybe just call your doctor to see where things are up to.
My second op is the 26th, so good luck to us,
Louie
