Yay!!! Some Positive News!!!
Well saw my Oncologist today. No need for Chemo, possible side effects outweigh anything that I might get out of Chemo. So it means I can start Radiotherapy straight away. Then onto Tamoxifen & possibly Goserelin injections. So all the stressing over Chemo has been for nothing. But extremely happy that I don't need Chemo. It means it will make it a lot easier to see the Dietician & Exercise Physiologist, that the CDM Nurse & my GP have referred me to. I chose to spread my 5 CDM appointments for this year out across the two of those specialists as I can get counselling through work if needs be. The other positive of all this means that I can see myself being back at work by 20 June which means that I don't have to put extra paperwork into work for special sick leave.
I am so glad that this is the case as I am commencing sick leave straight off maternity leave so want to get back to work as soon as possible instead of moping around home. I have always been the type of person to find that the best way with combating stressful situations is to have a normal working routine. It is when I'm not working that I become more stressed out as I have time to sit at home and think about things. Don't get me wrong I love being at home with my kids, but I need to keep busy for my own mental health.
