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.
Sorry sweetheart,should have sent a PM.Well avoided though.Hope Thursday goes well and the results come through quickly Only good news allowed in February so it should be OKLoved the story of your daughters,arm,typical timing.
Hi Shents, not spoke to you in ages, hope all is going well, keep us posted about your mammogram, thats my treatment all finished, but was just saying to lou, ive got a really sore lower back and now got myself worried that its something more sinister, I was told at beginning it hadnt spread but maybe has now, I'll need to phone tomor and get an appointment, I just want them to scan me and tell me it hasnt spread, but they dont seem to do that here, sorry just babbling now. Speak soon Col xx
its so natural to worry about every ache and pain speak to nurse/or orncologist. I had bit worry 2 weeks ago i didnt tell any family or friends cos i cant stand putting them thru any more . ihave another little lump in other breast i am sure its fine dr not overly worried (well a bit ) but starting radio wed i am also having another ct scan as there was a couple of things on previous scan they wanted to check. hopefully all fine . my husband is completely freaked about the possibility of it coming back but i am not going to let that happen i feel i have spent enough time on thi s ********* disease .
you lot are such a life line thank u all for fab support
Hi Nina thanks for replying I know I am probably worrying about nothing, at least you have had a scan, the hospitals here dont if margins are clear as were mine, consultant removed lump and took some surrounding tissue to check it hadnt spread and it was clear, therefor no need for scan, scotland prob different lol xxx
lets just hope that you have the same problem I have..... just Narcosis... but i know what you mean, I was terrified when i found my new lump.
Please let us know how you get on...
Colly... you got to remember that your body has been through such a lot... don't sit and stress... make an appointment at the doctors and give yourself some peace of mind
