Waiting for surgery

I waited about 2 weeks for surgery with my first bout of bc (2003)-my lump was 2cms and surprisingly,not in any lymph nodes.I waited 3 weeks from core biopsy (or 4 from mammogram) for the next bc surgery(2010) lump was 3cms. It was still classed as early bc and the same tumour.Which just goes to show that those few lingering bc cells were happy to stay put in my breast for 7 years! I had body and bone scans and they were clear.Now I know my pathology was different to yours but I just want you to read a positive story.I know the waiting is terrible- keep busy,also do things that calm you like a warm bath?glass of red?meditate and deep breathe telling your body to contain those little buggers in your breast.Basically just do what works for you.The unknown and not having control are the hardest parts - so  anything you can do to help yourself be proactive with your health or treatments can make you feel more in control.Good luck for Wednesday-it will be here before you know it.
