I'm sorry to hear it's taking so long for you to get a diagnosis and a plan in place.It must be very frustrating and also scary.The waiting and the not knowing are truly the worst parts of this crap journey.Once you know what you're dealing with you are able to get your head around it and move forward. I guess they have to gather all the information to make the right decision for you.It sounds like your specialist is being very thorough.I've been down the bc path twice.The last time was in 2010 when I had a mastectomy and chemo.I'm now on Tamoxifen.You feel like you are entering a dark tunnel but you do get through it -I'm fine now and enjoying life.We know what you are going through so blog anytime for support,info or to vent.Sending hugs, Tonya xx
