Surgery postponed grrr
Had a call from my surgeon today to advise me that in their discussions today about my surgery they found another lump today on same breast but opposite side from a recent mammograms I had on Monday. Needless to say I'm an emotional wreck at the moment. Rush to have ultrasound then another core biopsy done results tomorrow and then back to doctor Monday. I'm so pissed this was missed in the first scans I had. He has assured
me it looks benign but just want to make sure as it will change my surgery if it is not. Back to square one.

- Thanks sheryl
feeling good but sore. Dr did a great job just the wait for pathology now. Was good to sleep in my own bed last night. - Nads just thought I would touch base & see how you are going post recovery.
Best wishes, Sheryl x - Nads glad its all done and you are home recuperating!! I was lucky that my Surgeon put me in late one afternoon, I had hook wire, sentinel node dye done and then back to my room fed went to sleep and woke at 6 and in surgery at 7am. Really was great! unfortunately I was more sick from the Anaesthetic and narcotics that I was in hopsital for 3 days, the surgery was fine, worst part for me was the drain LOL, gee that hurt the most! Rest up and let us know when your definitive pathology comes in exactly of your diagnosis. Hugs Melinda xo
- Hi Pam. It was a huge day dye at 6.45 hook wire at 10 then hospital at 12. My surgeon had an emergency and instead of 1.30 op it was 5pm....glad it's all over for now. Had a great night sleep in my own bed
- Hi Nads
my surgery day was the longest day of my life, I had hookwires and dye injected at 9 at a seperate location Once dye hit lymph nodes had to drive to hospital told I'd be in by lunch didn't get done till 5.45! Try and rest the first few days after I was so tired
make sure you do your arm exercises.
ill be sending good vibes to the universe for good pathology results xx - Thanks for the update Nads. Great that you are home. Surgery day seems never ending! Hope you are not in too much pain over the next few days and have a quick recovery. It will seem like a long wait for your results but hopefully you will have some positive news and a plan of attack!
Take care, Jane x - Dr finally saw me at 7pm and now tucked up in my own bed. Have to wait till 30th for results because of pub holiday. Very deep incision almost in chest cavity wall. 3 nodes removed so drugs now on board and ready for lalaland
