hi I'm 52 and was diagnosed with ER+ invasive breast cancer in December following a routine mammogram.  I had a wide excision lumpectomy with licap reconstruction and lymph node biopsy on 6th January.  Happily my results were fantastic, all tumour removed, clear margins, no spread to lymph nodes or blood.  Tissue sample has now been sent to America for oncotype to see if I would benefit from chemotherapy.  If not it will be straight to radiotherapy and 5 years of hormone therapy.  Sadly my dad passed away from terminal cancer the day after my surgery so I've had to deal with a lot.  I'm still very tender following my op and am unsure if I should return to work or leave it another week as I've had a lot to deal with.  Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
