Hi All!

I hope everyone managed to get at least a little bit of respite from the fear and anxiety this weekend.

Vicki - how was the beach hut? Hope that fresh air did the trick for you.

Take care of yourselves xx

I took the kids to the cinema on Saturday, and then had my sons 4th birthday party on Sunday. So I've managed to keep quite well distracted!! 
 

The breast clinic just called, and they've moved my results appointment to 9:40 on Thursday, instead of 11:40. So at least I don't have to worry all morning. It will be school run, then appointment!! Praying for benign results!! Xxx

Aww, thanks so much. I've been visualising them gone, been taking supplements, meditating and of course being blasted with chemo, so yes am very happy they are going in the right direction!! Will let you know what the MRI says next week! 

Hope you are doing well still. Xxx

You sound lke you're killing it - lterally!!

What supplements are you taking?

I'm doing ok! Back at work (from home) until my next surgery which has now been delayed twice but hopefully will go ahead next Thursday! Not counting my chickens just yet!!!

Take care and catch up soon xx

That's wonderful news Vicki, I'm so thrilled for you.  Well done getting through it all.  Onwards and upwards with lots more good news to come for you I'm sure.

Thanks for your lovely message.

Hi Bubblesmum,

Sorry for not seeing this post sooner - I am really glad that your surgery went ahead and even happier to hear that it all went well.

Hope you are recovering well and getting lots of rest.

Hi

I came home yesterday afternoon and managed to get some sleep after a sleepless night in hospital. So lovely to be home. I feel ok today - taking painkillers regularly and pottering/resting! The drains are the worst bit - uncomfortable and heavy- carrying them around is a bit like being pregnant again!

Good luck with your surgery next week - it's amazing what they can do!

Hi Vicki,

Just wanted to check in and see how your MRI went. 

Hope it was OK and hoping for positive results for you xx

Hello my lovely lady 

No results were clear enough because I was moving too much apparently!! What a waste of half an hour in a metal tube. So instead he had a feel and confirmed that he too cannot find my small tumours. I'm booked in for a mammogram and ultrasound next Saturday to have a look also and in the interim I start new treatment on Tuesday next week. It had better be more tolerable than EC! Ugh. 12 weeks of it!! In other news I had my wig fitted on Thursday. Its amazing! So real, long, luscious and lovely. :) 

How are you doing? Xx

Hey!!

Oh no. Wkat a pain. MRI's aren't fun at the best of times and to not get any clear results what a nightmare. Am sure the mammo and ultrasound will be more definitive. And so good that they still couldn't find your lump on examination that's such a good sign.

I'm doing ok. Had surgery to sort out my dent on Thursday so back in recovery mode. Not the greatest way to spend Easter but must not complain!

Consultant confirmed I will need radiation so will suss out the details at next appointment in early May.

Wishing you all the best for the next round of treatment. Really hope its more bearable than the last. You've got this!

Sending hugs xx

Happy Easter ladies

Hope the weather is being kind to you. [@Vicki_76]‍ hope your ultrasound and mammogram go better than the MRI. The wig sounds lush. Did you get it to match your own hair? Best of luck with the new meds. Hopefully they'll be more tolerable than the previous ones.

[@PositiveT]‍ hope you're not in too much discomfort. Was it a long procedure and how long is your healing time? 
 

Enjoy the long weekend.

Hi Bubblesmum!

I'm pretty sore today!! Worse than after first surgery but had drain taken out this afternoon so hoping that will help! It was about 2.5 hour procedure and I am expecting about 4 week recovery time. Its all fun and games!!

How are you doing since your surgery? Hope you're recovering well and feeling positive about what is next to come in your treatment (if anything!)

Hope you had a lovely Easter!

Hi everyone

Glad to read that everyone is doing well and staying so positive.  Thinking of you all.

Enjoy this sunshine and hope you've all had a good Easter.

Hi PositiveT

Hope your recovery is going well. I think we are all entitled to 'down' days so I wouldn't beat yourself up about it. I've had quite a few myself in the last two weeks, mainly because I have felt completely exhausted and beaten up. I seemed to have turned a corner yesterday though - which was exactly 2 weeks post surgery. Hoping to get my two drains taken out tomorrow - they have given me more discomfort than the foob and make it difficult to sleep.

No results yet - hopefully next week. 

`I had a lovely Easter thank you - helped by the beautiful weather and not having to do any gardening! I have managed to hoover and do the ironing though. 

Hope today goes well and you are feeling brighter.

xx
