So scared
Hi everyone. Today I have been diagnosed with invasive ductal carcinoma :( One lump is 1.7cm the other which is situated very close to the big one is .8cm.
All the information from the specialist s...
No more of that silly "stupid me" talk young lady - you are not stupid. When we get news like this we all search for answers but I found "Dr Google" a very confusing bloke !!! No two sets of circumstances are identical and unfortunately the information on line can't answer your questions the same as someone you are eye-balling.
I'm not going to tell you to relax and not stress, that's not possible. The next few weeks will feel as it you've got onto a merry-to-round that won't stop. When you think of questions, write them down so that when you go to see your doc you can go through the list and get answers. If you don't understand the answers then ask to have them explained in a simpler manner. Don't forget - this is your body and you have the right to understand what's happening to it.
Make sure you always take someone with you to appointments ... if Richard can't make it sometimes, take Brittany (it's good to include her in your support crew so that she understands what you are facing). Two pair of ears are better than one because you may not absorb everything.
OK young woman - it's late .... go to bed x0x
