The start
I have just turned 50 on the 2nd Jan and my friend reminded me that I should get a mammogram. I went and had a mammogram. I had no family history of breast cancer so was surprised that I got a call...
I was definatly fast tracked...I work for specialists so, they had connections that moved me along quickly. My pathology from mastectomy was not so good...grade 3 with a 20mm invasive area and 100mm DCIS. I meet with the MO next week and outline the chemo plan. He thought 3-4 weeks I will start. They said I will not need radiation as I had the mastectomy, so at least thats a relief. I've never been a fan of roller coasters, when I have been on them, I've always tended to hold my breath on the drops...I seem to be handling this the same way! lol
