Hello Keryn,
saw your blog when searching for Austin Hospital and am wondering how you are going on your weight loss challenge?
I have been referred to Hamish Farrow who I believe does public work at the Austin Hospital. Is this your PS? My case is a tricky one, I have had a lumpectomy followed by raditaion. Finished 6 weeks ago, so far so good, except for a new lump that has come up in my ax gland, am getting ultrasound on Monday and trying not to stress too much.
My bc breast is now 12C with other breast 12F would like to reduce this one. It would be an 8hr round trip to go and see Mr Farrow, so am wondering if it will be a waste of time, as this may be classed as cosmetic?
Do you think your surgeon was sympathetic towards you as a public patient. Sometimes I am not sure if we are just a number.
I am weight concious, walk my 2 dogs every day if possible. When first diagnosed I was walking 15klms a week with my dog Fudge, during radiation Fudge got hit by a car and we didn't think she would make it. Wonderful hubby quickly got replacement. Fudge has made a miracle recovery and now has a playmate Boo. Life is not meant to be easy is it.
Take care
