As one of the "unlucky" ones, I am so pleased it was better than expected.  You be smug,  you deserve to be! I dont class myself as unlucky. I have two new beasts, and Im still alive x dont ever be sorry for happy x

I think I speak for the majority when I say CELEBRATE today x I will celebrate for you too x

Take radiotherapy one treatment at a time x remember we're all here for support xx

I've just had a run of lots of days feeling positive - helps when the sun is out and I can enjoy spending time with friends and family. I haven't cried for about a week!  But I think I was in denial that I am facing surgery in under two weeks!  I was hoping (stupidly!) that it would just go away........

But today I got my operation letter through from the hospital and now it's in black and white I am back to tears again.................I hate this!!

At least one of my school mum friends has invited me around for tea and biscuits later.....

Good afternoon,

Unfortunately I didn't get my final pathology results yesterday at my appointment as they hadn't come back, I was so disappointed but I'm working on the premise that no news is good news.

I have a second appointment on Thurs 11th, on a positive note the surgeon way very pleased with my healing as am I. I seemed to have turned a corner and feel so much better and haven't been in any painkillers for nearly a week. 

Xx

Good to hear you are healing well and stopped the pain killers.

I can't believe you are still having to wait for your results.  It is so hard waiting 2 weeks as it is without a further delay.  It isn't good enough...............rant over!!

Take care.

Hello - been thinking of you.  How did the appointment on the 11th go - are you all clear?

x

Aww how nice, thank you.

I meant to post and forgot and then everytime i've thought about it I've been in bed.

It was the best news.. My pathology was clear and I don't need any radiotherapy. I'm now on Tamoxifen for 5yrs but I can cope with that.

It's a surreal feeling because for 3 months I had cancer and now I don't..just like that!! I did celebrate that day and had a little bit of a hangover the next day.

How are you, when is your surgery date? 

Xx

Wow that is so good.  I am hoping for the same but have my surgery this Wednesday.  I am so scared right now - keep bursting into tears as I don't want to go!  I've been told I've got to take Tamoxifen for 5 years too.  Hope neither of us get nasty side effects - lots of people on here do but I guess those who are ok don't post.

Hello!  So I'm 12 days post op and feeling ok.. Still getting tired when I do too much and reconstruction still sore but off the painkillers now.  Glad the op is over - hated having to carry the drain around!!

Results have been delayed as should have been going this week to see the consultant but now it will be next week.

Onwards and upwards back to normality....

xx

Hello, I was thinking about you only today.

Thank you for the update and  so glad you are doing well. It's rubbish when the results are delayed but as they say no news is good news.

It's surprising how long the soreness lasts. I'm 7 weeks post Op up tomorrow and the twinges and pains still surprise me. I'm not moaning I'm still very impressed with what they've done for me, what it looks like and how I feel in general. 

Take care and speak again soon xx
