I had a breast screen in mid June and by the 2nd July my right breast was removed. I would like to talk to someone in a similar position. I am 59, married, 2 children and 3 grandchildren and I live i...
Hi again Lyn .....
I guess when the big question comes up - one or two - it would depend on why? Was there a chance that it may have travelled "next door", or did you have the heireditary gene.
I know that when I have my 12mth mamo and ultrasound probably in Dec, if there's a hint that there could be anything there I'll be saying "get rid of it", but that's me!!
I still haven't put any kind of bra on yet - a couple of reasons:- I have put on weight so to wear a bra would make my spare tyre bigger than my boobs. Secondly I was never blessed with big boobs so the fact that I am braless is not even noticable. Hopefully the weight will come off over summer when I am out and about doing more exercising than I am at the moment (which wouldn't have to be much).
Now I'm going to be a bit strict here - a bit of a bossy boots!!!!!!!
Have you spoken to your husband about this or are you just assuming he wouldn't understand? if you haven't mentioned it, think of this ..... he can't read your mind (we wouldn't really want them too would we?) so it's up to you to bring the subject up!
Some men can be a bit clueless at time so you may have to use little words and short sentances.... don't mind me, I have a rather strange sense of humour at times!!!
Will you let me know which area of Brisbane you are in so I can hunt around and find a group close to where you are. It's great that we chat here, but we can't do it over a cuppa and have general girlie talks on the computer.
Chat again soon ..... as often as you would like to
Cheers ... Shirl
