About lauramacca5861

I am 33 years old, i am married with 2 children aged 10 & 6. I found a problem with my right breast in APRIL2020, was referred to the hospital and my doctor said to change my bras and diagnosed me with Mastalgia, breast got worse and eventually my breast had become a rock and nipple became inverted. Went back a few times and eventually i had scans and biopsies which confirmed i had Lobular cancer in my right breast that was 9.3cm and they also found something in my left and my Lymph Nodes, was told i needed a double mastectomy, and chemo and radio! Which i got my head around, then i had bone and CT and they found something suspicious on my spine, so now i am awaiting a spinal MRI with a due to start chemo on the 18th September. still in a state of shock and wondering why me?
