I'd like to wake up now...
Hello, my name is Heidstar and I have Breast Cancer:
Diagnosed 20 February...surgery (lumpectomy & sentinel node biopsy) 8 March. Lymph clear, margins not. Scheduled for mastectomy & reconstruction...
Forum Discussion
Thanks Chris
Amazing how helpful stories like yours are for a 'newbie' like me...to put things in perspective more than anything else. I am quite concerned about the assymetry (my healthy breast is totic i.e. droopy). But that's minor I guess. The surgeon is going to try to save my nipple....I see the plastic surgeon this afternoon before my op on Monday so not sure what his thoughts on the matter might be :)
5 haircuts already! Nice work. My sister-in-law's hair went curly too....lasted about 6 months before it went straight again...so there is hope ;)
Can I ask why you had a second mastectomy?
Thanks again for your encouragement. and best wishes
