Thanks for replying. Oh what a time you have had, I'm hope the chest and sinus infections are cleared up now. It's such a long wait, I will be five weeks from diagnosis til lumpectomy then another maybe two weeks wait for results. Good days and stressful days in between. Hard not to overthink and worry. Not long for you now so that's good and hopefully the results are good. Did they give you any indication of how they felt it went after the op or is that not something they do? How long was the op? 

my chest infect is almost gone thankfully because it wasnt pretty lol, all my surgeon said was that the op went well they removed my tumour which was small so it's a matter of hoping the margins and lymphs were clear. I saw him wed just gone for a wound check because I have a small seroma and he didn't give nothing away just said that my results arent in yet I was kinda hoping he would have something back but if he had he wasnt telling me, not long now till your surgery that's one more big step that you'll of crossed and to be fair even though the waiting inbetween for your results is tough it actually goes quite quick xx

Hi,

Sorry to hear about your diagnosis. The MRI scan will give your consultant more information and decide on your treatment and you may have other scans too. I was diagnosed in October 2019 with IDC HER2 positive breast lump. Trust in your team and they will do the best they can for you.

Wishing you all the best,

hi silver days I hope that you are well after your diagnosis, I've already had my MRI and mammogram a few weeks ago I think because initially my consultant told me it appears a small slow growing cancer and then once my tests started to come through they are slightly contradicting those first findings is what is confusing me. obviously I've not had my surgical path results which are this wednesday so they were provisional I'm just hoping that everything is clear now it's been removed x

Hello sweetheart. I feel so sorry for you. I too was given a core biopsy on Monday and am currently 'existing' through this awful week until I get the results next Monday. The nurses looked pretty glum at what they saw on the ultrasound and when I asked if they thought it was serious, they said 'yes'. Ah well, we will see. 
I wanted to reply to you though because I know how much worse it is for you and I have spent a lot of time thanking Heaven that at the age I am (67) I don't have all the hopes and dreams of youth going around my head as well. Of course, whatever age you are you have dreams and plans for the future but it is so much harder for you. 
But! Enough of that. You must keep your thoughts positive. Allow your loved ones to come close and hear your worries. Don't bottle it up and don't be alone. The power of the mind is a wonderful thing so make sure you use it well. Bless you and good luck x

Hi 

I was diagnosed with ductal carcinoma which is stage 0 breast cancer it's still in the milk ducts. I was diagnosed from my routine mammogram in January, 16th February had my operation and just started radiotherapy yesterday. I need 5 sessions so finish next Tuesday. Radiotherapy is painless, just a pain having to go hospital every day for around 20 minutes or so. I found it helped me to read everything I could regarding my cancer so I was forewarned and it also helped me with asking questions to my oncologist and surgeon. Hope everything  goes well xxx
