I was initially told stage 2 treatable breast cancer but i have been experiencing a shortness of breath so ct scan was done and the breast unit have said i am now to be referred to encology as it is in the bone and lung. So i have to wait another two weeks to see them. I have never been so scared. I am a strong person but i dont know if i am going to die this year or next year and i am falling apart. I am in limbo with nowhere to go until they deign to give me an appointment. I dont know what type of breast cancer it was they just said stage 2 and discussed options. Then the ct scan was done which probably would not have happened had i not gone back to my gp on another issue and mentioned it - i said i had some chest pain and was short of breath when I had the first exam in the unit. Had an MRI now and thatbwas just fab. 15 mins after i am told i no longer have a treatable lump i am lying there for the better part of an hour crying quietly alone in a noisy tube. I went to the appointment alone and regret that hut it was only supposed to be a surgery or chemo first meetung not a bombshell delivery. Not a happy bunny.
