Hi I was diagnosed with breast cancer 15th Feb 2023 - on 15 th March I had a lumpectomy. NHS were brilliant all the way. I also have to say that the chat forum on here helped me so much too.  Having someone to chat to who had been through similar was such a massive help to me xx

Hi I was diagnosed April 29th also in Lymph nodes and booked in for May 24th but they found another lump yesterday so have been asked to decide between lumpectomy or mastectomy . X

Hi, I been looking into how long people wait.  
I was diagnosed middle of July, after a month of waiting as the team lost my notes, I’m due to have a lumpectomy early September.  Will be 3 months from the day I first went to GP.  
IDC 60mm x 41mm - recently had biopsy on lymph nodes  and waiting results 

I was initially going to go for lumpectomy but after mri it was found to be larger than first thought so was advised to have a mastectomy. For me this was the right decision as I was worried a lumpectomy would not get it all. Good luck with your treatment whatever you decide and wishing you a speedy recovery xx
