Breast cancer stage 2 her 2

Chessi

I was diagnosed on the 12th of August. I have two tumours and have since been told that the larger of the two has tendrils growing from it. I guess that means it's showing a propensity to spread. I've been told I'll be having chemo before surgery and have had the mag seeds implanted.  Why hasn't my treatment started? My mental health has nosedive,  I'm losing weight and jumping at shadows . They tell me it's urgent and that I'm "top of the list ". Which list is that exactly? 

.I can feel myself getting sicker.

    Hi Chessi, sorry to hear about your diagnosis, I too felt stressed in the early days. I was diagnosed in January with invasive ductal carcinoma, two tumours, one with lobular tendencies. My chemo didn't start until the fourth of March and finished in early July. I am due to have a mastectomy with diep flap reconstruction in early October. So there has been a bit of waiting, but I have every faith in my team and try to be a positive as I can. I wish you well on your journey moving forward.  Xx
