Thank you so much to everyone who has taken the time to reply . They give me such comfort and hope . This waiting is like a form of torture but I guess it's just getting me strong for the things ahead . I have this terrible ache under and down my arm on the same side the breast cancer is . It just feels like it must have spread . The breast care nurse says its normal to feel these things . Well it's less than 72 hours and this horrible thing will be out and then I can move on to destroying any other cancer cells . Thanks again girls . My friends and family are trying their best but unless you have been in this position there is just no way to comprehend it . X x x x
