Anxious wait
Hi all, I’ve been waiting since end of June for a surgery date (they originally only found DCIS in my right breast). Last week the surgeon told me they’ve also found mixed DCIS/LCIS invasive triple positive 8mm lesion as well on my last biopsy. I’ve finally been booked in for surgery 15 October which is still 4 weeks away. I’m an anxious wreck and so scared it is going to spread in that time. Each day I feel weaker and more depressed. I’m wondering if others have been in same situation and what they did. I’m already accessing counselling, meds and exercise. My fear feels so real and overwhelming. thanks for your support 🙏🏽Looking for suggestions after double Mastectomy
Hi everyone. How good is this website? I have learnt so much. I have been recently diagnosed with Breast Cancer 😒 and will be having a double mastectomy in the coming weeks. I am looking for suggestions/ideas for post surgery. For example clothes to wear, pillows, chairs, sleeping positions and the like. Looking forward to your ideas. Thank You
BMX with ALN removal and SN biopsy.
Hello to all you lovely folks on here. I've had 6 cycles of THCP and I'm having BMX this Wednesday, with axillary clearance on the left and sentinal node biopsy on the right. Has anyone had the same? And any advice for recovery? Were you able to go out for a walk or is it mostly housebound at first? I'm also dealing with heamorroids so a little worried about that. Thank you and best wishes to everyone going through this.
