Help please

Hey Jenny

Welcome to a wonderful group on this network that will help you in any way they can I am sure.

I would just say you want to take a step back and find out a lot more information before you have to agree to a mastectomy. 

If you find it is the best path for you to go down on this new road you have unfortunately found yourself on then you can say yes to it but you have a right to find out further information first. 

I wont chat with you about your diagnosis as I am not qualified in any way.

I do know that I didn't see the oncologists until after surgery but I know a lot of the doctors are doing chemo first before surgery more and more these days.

You need to get all your test results together and get a proper overall picture of it all.  Take someone with you and speak to someone who is able to give you the answers that you need to know. Don't be rushed at your appointment or to make a decision.  Too many people including myself rush in to things just because they want the dreaded tumour removed but later they say if I had have asked more questions and taken more time I probably would have done it different.  

I just want to welcome you and suggest you find out as much info as you can until you feel right about what you have to do.

Good luck with it all huny.  We are all here for you.  Ask away and if we can help we sure will do so.
