About Rusk

My regular mammogram in late February showed some growths in my left breast and so was called for further tests and core biopsy, which then showed I had 3 growths in the left breast 32mm, 22mm, and 11mm. The largest one had bad cells and was diagnosed as triple negative grade 3. I had surgery last week to remove the 2 larger lumps and 3 nodes. That evening I had lot of swell8ng and so back to theatre next day to remove the heamtoma, which reduced the swelling, though both breasts badly bruised, bloodshot. After 3 days there is pain only on touching, but I feel weak and my bowel has not settled and I am always bloated which is very uncomfortable. Would Anybody out there want to share their experience and any advice. The more I read about triple negative, the more disheartened I get. In 2 days I shall see the consultant and get further results on the samples and what they show.
