Hi Debs,

A very warm welcome to our forum.

I am sorry to hear about your diagnosis. Stress accounts for a lot at this stage of your cancer journey. Many of us imagine all sorts of aches and pains after a diagnosis. Fortunately, most of these die down after we have had surgery. As for metastasis, your biopsy tells your surgeon a lot. The tissue that is removed during your operation will also be sent for testing, along with any lymph nodes that are removed. This will indicate whether or not there is any spread and will also indicate whether or not a clear margin was attained at the time of your surgery. Place your faith in your care team. They will leave no stone unturned.

Please keep in touch and let us know how you get on. We are always here for you.

Kind regards,

Jolamine xx
