Hi Twinmum.

Really sorry to hear you have received this news today. Its OK to cry and you are not being vain at all. The idea of losing a part of you is totally terrifying and any breast surgery and cancer diagnosis no matter how early and treatable has a huge effect on a person mentally and physically.

What was it that changed the treatment plan for you? 

Be kind to yourself! You never have to apologise for how you are feeling.

Thank you for the reply. 

When I went to get my magseed ultrasound they ended up doing more biopsies as there was another area they weren't sure about which turned out to be cancerous too. I have 5 small areas over a section of my breast. I do have large breasts so hoping the reduction works out. Xx

I really hope the reduction works out for you and you don't need further surgery!

I have big boobs too.....current plan is for upper left quadrant of affected breast to be removed with a lift and bilateral reduction. Having an MRI on Thursday so fingers crossed that doesn't throw a spanner in the works but what will be will be!

Take care....you've got this! Xx

Thank you x

I hope all goes to plan for you too. Xx

Thanks!

Do you have a date for your surgery? X

No date as yet but I should hopefully find out today. Going to get another marker in tomorrow. Hope all goes well with your MRI. Do you have any surgery dates or will that come after MRI? Xx

Thank you :-)

Fingers crossed you get your date today. I am due for surgery on 10th March - keep anticipating somethig will go wrong/change but that's just my anxiety talking!!! Fingers crossed!

Xx

Positive thinking that all will go to plan for you.

I never heard anything today. I was told my breast care nurse would call me. I've been told she would call me on previous occasions. I've only heard from her once just after being diagnosed. Is this normal? Xx

That's ****. Sorry the waiting is being prolonged. In fairness I have only called my breast nurse once and she called back the following day. It was quite late in the day when I rang. So can't really say whether that's normal. 

I would get on the phone first thing and give her a call! Not fair to keep you hanging.

Good luck. Hope you get some news soon the waiting is the worst xx

I am at hospital tomorrow anyway to get another marker in so will if they know anything then. 

Xx

Fingers crossed for you tomorrow xx
