I'm sorry, that must be so scary frustrating! You just want to know, have a game plan and be moving forward. I hope they are able to get the rest of your test results quickly so you can continue your fight without too much delay. (((Hugs)))

Waiting and not having a definite plan is the absolute WORST! I hope it all starts working itself out for you soon.

I'm sorry that you've got even more worry and decisions to make CK. It's always the waiting with these kind of things that gives one even more questions going through your mind. Have you contacted Breastcancer care they were wonderful with a friend of mine who also went through a double. They have dedicated nurses there that can answer all your questions. She found it easier to speak to them than to ask all the questions she needed answering with her surgeon. I guess it was a less formal conversation in some way than thinking on the spot facing her surgeon. Writing all your questions down as you think of them before you contact them would be a good idea. big ((((hugs)))) x |

I've got an appointment with the nurse specialist next week so I'm definitely writing all my questions down, there's a lot to think about. I feel a bit less fragile today, back to the 'just get on with it' frame of mind I guess. There are bound to be ups and downs. I'm trying to be kind to myself  Thank you all for your kind words and support, it really does mean a lot. |

Aw, rats. I'm sorry you are facing more surgeries.
I think for me, and I've never been in your shoes, I'd go for the full double mastectomy. I believe I would always worry about a recurrence in the remaining breast. It's a very personal decision that only you can make.
I hope and pray you have much, much better news in the future.

I'm sorry . I remember feeling numb when it turned out my cervical cancer had spread to the lymph nodes ( they were convinced all along they had removed it all as it was tiny .)
I'll be praying for you and sending you positive thoughts . Your plan isn't firm yet, but you don't want it to be until they know they have made the very best plan !

I'm sending you a gentle hug. It seems to me that one of the really draining things about cancer is the way you are constantly having to adjust mentally and emotionally to new information and new events and new expectations. It's hard! I pray that you'll feel good and strong again quickly and that you won't have to change your expectations too much more.
