You'll get some pathology info after the biopsy but all of the info after your surgery. As I said mine was 22mm to begin with then 43mm after removal.  That concerned me a bit but it's still a stage 2 cancer & considered to be caught early. Mine is lobular, less common than ductal & no obvious lump.

Thank you, I'm praying just radiotherapy & hormone therapy.  You're right we've got this and will get there. x

Most of my appointments have been at a hospital which is close by for me but I was allocated a nurse I'd never met from another hospital but one of the nurses at the original hospital has now taken me over because I've seen her loads. I need to go to the other hospital for my dye injection then to a different hospital for the op. 

I trying to take one day at a time but I'm an overthinking worrier. 

Oops I asked about surgeon then thought that's probably not allowed. So sorry for asking that. 

No problem at all, I wrote that I didn't think it was allowed but mentioned her name anyway, it was edited lol. 
It sounds like your appointments have been very similar to mine & I know where you mean.  It must be the way it all works. 
I was pretty anxious to begin with too, the worst part is leading up to the surgery & waiting on the results. It's out of your control & if you're like me you'll want to know every little detail.

Try not to worry as it will stress you out. I've found that trying to concentrate on eating well, getting some exercise (although I have to be careful just now helps). It does get easier as you work through your treatments.

I tried to add you as a friend so I could tell you the surgeon I had but it said you couldn't be found !
There are 2 at that particular hospital, mine was the younger one, both very good though. You'll be in capable hands. Good luck for the 16th.x

There I go again writing names of hospitals ‍♀️ 

That's my magseeds in although I fainted. Lol. Jyst waiting on surgery now. Hopefully nothing will get in the way this time. 

I've gave up going to my bootcamp classes but been trying to walk most days but I can't stop stress eating. 

Yeah I feel confident with my consultant. Bring it on! 

Magseed was absolutely fine. I got one put in lying on the bed and the other under mammogram which is when I fainted but I'm a fainter at the best of times. Think it's because I was sitting up for that and felt the needle and was thinking about it too much. 

Yay! That's good to hear. Apart from the fainting bit!

Next step surgery. Bring it on, we've got this xx

Aww that's a shame but no wonder with all the poking and prodding. But you're now one step closer to your surgery.  The good news is that the radioactive injection the day before your op is quick and I didn't find it sore. 

If you're going to look at getting a sports bra ( I know you still have to go over it all with the nurse) it might be an idea to get something with a deep band. As I'm healing I feel like I need to keep pulling the bra down from the crease under my boobs. I bought some soft cotton non wired bras but even these are cutting in a bit. I'm going to have a look at some pull on crop types now that I can lift my arms up easily. 

You can get back into exercise when you're able, rest and look after yourself in the meantime. 

Will hear how it all goes for you. x

Thank you! It's all feeling very real now.

Magseed in, PCR was negative so all set for tomorrow. One more sleep although I don't imagine I'll be getting much - last few days I have been awake from 4.00am! Sorry you are struggling to sleep too - it is so difficult to stop the mind from wandering.

Will be in touch after surgery!

Take care xx

Good luck - I'm sure you'll feel much better once the op is done. It's a massive sense of relief. Just try not to overdo it. I felt ok a couple of days later and rubbish the following week! We're all thinking of you.
