results are back. Need more surgery as margins were not clear. IDC and DCIS measured 54mm so i shall be having Chemo, radiotherapy and a little tablet for 5 years. I am calm at present.....gp prescribed low dose Endep so i could sleep without thinking.
- Hi Colleen. Unfortunately it is the waiting which is so hard...once you see your surgeon and get the pathology results explained to you ...you can see 'ahead'..have a plan. It is a roller coaster of emotions I am sure you are having...fear of the unknown is always so hard for all of us. Make sure that you take someone with you for support and have a list of questions for the surgeon. We have all been through this stage..remember that you will have all of our support..just ask...someone will have an answer for you. Best of luck. Let us know how you get on. Chris xx
