Why was I kept in the dark?

On Dec 4th 2015 I had my first mastectomy.  I was told very little really.  They told me I had the largest tumor they had ever seen and how oh so lucky I was. Yeah... really???) To this very day, I still have not been told what kind of breast cancer I had/have.  Every other person I have ever talked to, they have known what kind of cancer they have.  
Why am I not told to this day what kind of breast cancer I had??

  • Here I am in January 2019 - and I still have absolutely no clue what kind of cancer I have/had.  Since that first mastectomy, I have had test after test after test and I am no nearer to knowing what kind of cancer I had/have.  In 2019 I have huge problems with both my feet and legs with numbness.  I have had huge problems with side effects from the chemo. I am sick to death of my oncologist just basically patting me on the head. 
    What do I do???
