The messages help. Just feeling stressed and anxious closer the appointment gets. I know odds are on I may be ok but at Rome’s like this you don’t think best odds!! Also feel is lump bigger smaller or no change at all. Easy for your mind to play tricks!!! X
Had a much better day today, had a letter to say I have my appointment through for the 16th to discuss my treatment plan....eek! Xx
Got my results Wednesday. Been long wait since lumpectomy 17th December. Getting anxious and teary again now.xx
Oh no! I’m sorry I am the sad sack tonight. Pleased your appointment through with treatment plan. Moving forward onwards and upwards xxxxx
I had a horrible day on Saturday, try as you might there are times your mind just has to go to those dark places....you do everything to pull yourself back but can't, I totally get it.....xxxx
That is a wait isn't it! So.....Wednesday for you it is then....would love to know your treatment plan if you don't mind letting us know? We can compare when I get mine....scary has heck isn't it.....keep convincing myself I will need chemo...then that starts off a whole baggage of dark thoughts! I need to get a grip..xxx
Ladies everything you all are feeling is normal. The feeling scared because appointment to find out gets closer, the knowing the next step is in sight and just generally feeling that a good cry is needed because the lump is still there and wanting the nightmare to be just a bad dream. Sadly it is something we have to go through to come out the other side. There will be good and bad days make the most of the good days as in time they will out weigh the bad ones! X
We are all allowed to be the sad sacks....you ought to have seen me Saturday! ( actually....it was good you couldn't see me) even my lovely dog couldn't raise a smile....xx
But your better today! These days are part of the rollercoaster ride you are on! X
Yes I will definately post my plan. They only took sentinel node so I am praying that is clear and that there is going to be a clear margin where Tumor was removed. It's just exhausting.. however strong and positive you can be it just comes over in waves of anxiety and emotions!! Keep going ladies!!xx
