Dear Odette,
I'm not in the same position as you, as yet.
Unfortunately and fortunately for me I've known many women with BC at my workplace (a large hospital)
When I got BC, I had been 'well informed' of experiences.
A friend on my Ward, became Stage 4, in 2020.
She had a hip replacement, with a specialist Orthopod.
She has been doing very well since. A lovely lady, she always manages a smile.
She also gave me lots of advice on diagnosis (2020), and Reconstruction, and an insight to her world.
All the best for your Surgery and treatments to come, I hope all goes well and you respond well.
