Hi. It looks like this discussion thread has been going a long time and i hope i will be able to join the community here. I was diagnosed with breast cancer just after xmas and have had a mastectomy last week. I have a secondary tumor in my hip and possibly in my head so will have to face chemo and radiotherapy although I dont know the details as yet. I would love to make friends on here who i can both support and find support from on this journey. I have 2 grown up children and they have surprised me recently as to how supportive they can be. It certainly is a case of role reversal in my house. Chassis x x
Welcome to the place no-one wants to be.Hope you are coping with the mastectomy and glad to see you have support at home.I had mastectomy 4 years ago and have recurrance in the lymph glands in my neck and chest .I have been on chemo for 2 years to contain it and like you have 2 grown up children and 3 grandchildren ,so plenty of reasons to fight on.Hope you have a good medical team looking after you.What part of the world do you live in?We are a well scattered lot on here.
You little trouper.I went jogging once and had get home itis at the second lampost,still in view of my house !!!Im definitely built for comfort not speed.Keep up the good work but stay healthy and look after yourself.
Hey Rose me darlin - Sorry for the rather cryptic message on my blog - its just that I havent told my dad about the extra scan. I'm pretty confident everything will be ok, so I don't want to give him the extra worry! He's a regular follower on the blog so I didn't mention it on there. I go for the ultra super spesh mammagram on Thursday this week and possibly have the biopsy at the same time depending on what they think. Up to now they've stressed that its not ringing too many alarm bells, but as a good Imp from the Brownies I know I should 'Be Prepared!'
I'll keep you posted on here as to what happens.
Thanks for being such a wonderful cyber friend to me and many others on here.
Thanks for the kind message - you got there in the end!
I'm sure everything will be ok tomorrow. I do hate the thought of getting my boob mangled by the machine and core biopsy-ed again, and then the waiting for results...total pants! My lovely hubby will be with me though - and I know you'll all be there in spirit too.
