Gday beautiful pink sisters. Ive been reading this site for a couple of weeks & finally decided to do a post. New to all of this, Im learning lots from this site & other posts. It seems from what Ive...
Gday Debbie thanks for your message. Interesting that we had the same cancer. My surgeon said it is the best combination to have. She didnt give me an option of removing the whole breast. She just called me & said I have cancer & need to go into hospital next week for a lumpectomy. Mastectomy never entered my mind.
Thats very extreme, but I maybe in for a mastectomy in future too. Im possibly putting off the inevitable by only doing radiation & not choosing chemo first. At 43ys Im just not ready to be that sick if I dont have to. Havent met the oncologist yet.
Ive read some of your postings where you talk about reconstruction, expanders & tram flap. Im learning lots by what you've posted. Glad to hear your blood tests are going well. Hadnt heard of the recurrance test you referred to but it was good to see another women did & could answer your concern.
I sincerely wish you well on this horrible ride of BC. Ill be reading.
Thanks again for letting me know about your results. Justine
