Hello everyone !
I'm 32 and have just been diagnosed after some back and forth for a few months with high grade DCIS breast cancer. They had discussed that the plan would be surgery ( removal and due to the amount of tissue and the location of this, reconstruction to both sides) and radiotherapy after this and I felt ok with this and was coming to terms with it.
They called today to say after discussing the case at their MDT, they now want to get a larger biopsy sample done on Thursday to ensure that this has not spread and it's really made me worry! I don't deal well with uncertainty and seem to always go to worst case scenario!
I still feel that I haven't really processed this as I think of myself as quite an emotional person and even cry at sad adverts on TV however I haven't even cried once since being told ! Did anyone else find themselves reacting like this? I haven't even taken a day off work to process things but not sure if this is an avoidance tactic
