Hi Tonya,
I couldn't believe what you have been through! You poor darling. Who would think after 7 years it could possibly happen again!
Do understand the feelings of anger, not that I have had too much anger as yet. I am sure I will though, especially the more I think of how will they possibly ever be able to tell me future testing will really be believable! The MRI I had in January didn't pick up this latest cancer and if it does come back, deeper and further from the surface, what then? I so get what you mean about losing confidence in our bodies. That is just so true. I know it may come to a point where I may be advised to have a bilateral mastectomy because of the problems I seem to present with testing.
I am worrying about results from the scans and really hope mine come back clear, (although will I trust them?). How did you go with Tamoxifen? I worry about the side effects of that drug and think I would prefer an aromatase one instead. Will do more research I think.
My tiredness is so much worse today so I am just going to have to take it easy. What's it going to be like when I go through chemo? I am scared about that - don't really know why. How long before you feel in control again? Have more friends visiting this afternoon - I am happy they are coming but don't know if I'm really up to it.
The support and caring on this site is different from the support from family and friends, but is in some ways much more special. We don't have to feel guilty or weak for the way we are feeling and you totally understand. Such an important and necessary thing for right now.
Thank you so much! Sending you a hug in return.....
