Hiya 

I am new to the forum and I am so worried as well.

I found a lump on my right breast a couple of days ago and i have an appointment with my gp next Thursday...the waiting game is the hardest ...I cannot stop crying and thinking the worst...it is really hard .

I hope you get some great results .

You too it's a worrying  time for sure.  I feel exactly  the same.  My best day this week as so busy at work.  Distraction  seems to be the best thing right now. Hope your results are good too x

Hi lovely ladies!

I hope you are both well. 

I am thinking both of you. I am always so happy to see a message that I have an email from ine if you great ladies.

My mri is on Monday morning, I am a bit scared but it needs to be done !

I did have a call yesterday from one ofvthe nurses to let me know that my operation is on the 9th of December..I am terrified but again there is nothing I can do ...unfortunately!

I am still waiting for the fish request test and hopefully I will know by tomorrow, if I need chemo myself maybe after the operation...I am still a bit confused as I thought I will have my chemo,if needed ,before my operation but I will wait and see wht the Dr will day tomorrow. 

I am thinking of both of you . 

We will make it ! 

Good luck for Monday Elvira114

Stay strong night night xx 

Hi lovely,

I'm so glad you know when your operation will be, and 9th of Dec is quite soon so looks like they are all over it! Have you already discussed the operation? Will it be a lumpectomy? 
 

Have you meanwhile heard news about the fish test? Hopefully that will give you some more news on the specifics. From my understanding they usually give chemo before surgery either when the tumor is quite large/ you have lymph node involvement, or when you are HER2 positive. I hope for you it's not necessary!

Keep us posted please ️ 

Hi Elvira114 & Madgee,

I am pleased that he operation is so close ...hopefully I will be OK for Christmas,at home with my family!

I am having a masectomy and a reconstruction at the same time so I am a bit terrified, even if I have discussed everything with the 2 doctors. 

The fish request is negative, so no chemo at the start but there might be after the operation. 

I am getting my mri next week and then my pre assessment the week after. 

I wish you Elvira114 good luck for Monday my dear

Madgee ,I hope you are feeling OK after ypu first chemo and you have a nice ,relaxing weekend

Have a lovely afternoon.  Be strong ,we will make it, we will beat this horrible disease. 

Sending lots of love to both of you

Sending love to you both today girls.  You will be ok Elvira promise I will be in touch with you both soon.  Don't worry lots of water and rest when you get home. Love to you both xxxxx

Hi v1234,

I'm sorry I've been out the loop.  Had a few sleepy days after Chemo but turning the corner today and picking up. I'm so so glad you have a date for your operation and you can start the new year knowing it's gone and when you fully recover you will be able to enjoy life once more.  Fantastic news no Chemo required also.  I know it's daunting but it's the absolute best outcome under the circumstances.  My friend has had mastectomy and just had a reconstruction of her other breast so that they are matching and she can feel confident in her body once again.  It's all gone very well and she's making a really good recovery.  I think of you both often and am here for you and Elvira anytime.  Chemo is tiring so been off the grid for a few days but you are always in my thoughts.  Love to you ️

Hi Madgee 

So good to hear that you re feeling better and stronger every day!!

Also So reassuring to hear about your friend ,stories like these give me strength and confidence that everything will be absolutely OK!. 

I had my mri scan for the arteries tody ,everything went well apart from they could not find a vein,so they had to try 3 times...a bit bruised but I will survive. 

Elvira114, 

I hope everything went well for you today. I was thinking about you this morning. 

I hope you both have a lovely evening and a good rest.

Thinking of both of you . Lots of love xxxx

Thanks for your messages lovelies!

Everything went fine and smooth at the hospital yesterday, the nurses were amazing and made me feel so at ease. Came home and got a headache and became quite nauseous but after a few hours of sleep feeling a bit better this morning :) meds for the side effects are helping at the moment, so just trying to drink loads and rest! 
 

Hope you're still doing ok Madgee! And V1234 that your MRI went ok!
