i got the all clear today but came into this site with a heavy heart as i think of all ur pain and suffering , i will thank god for me being well i will also ask god if he will please give you all the same news as i have been given one day god bless you all xx
I too received the all clear yesterday. Clear margin and nothing in any of the Lymph nodes. I have gone through the last 4 weeks on a roller coaster of disbelief, fear, anger anxiety and then relief. I have been very fortunate as I was asked to attend a random breast screening by the NHS out of the blue (first screening ever) which I was reluctant to attend as I self examined regularly and felt I didn’t need to attend as I felt no lumps and noticed no changes. Decided to go in the end and found out subsequently that I indeed had a 15mm tumor in the right breast DCIS and invasive. That was the worst day of my life. Had a LWE with sentinal node scan.
I now am due to have radiotherapy for the next 6 weeks starting as from next Tuesday, following on with Tamoxifen as I am pre-menopausal. All I can say to everyone as I am new on here, is that NHS Breast Screening is vital and for younger ladies too. I had no idea I had cancer and would have not have known had it not been for the mammogram and ultrasound. I would not have had a further screening until I was 53…3 years on. My 50th birthday came and went in a blur due to my diagnosis two weeks before. I now intend to celebrate all over again as I beleive I have been given a new lease on life.
Life is precious and I pray for all of you out there who are coming to terms with your diagnosis and subsequent treatment.
All the very best to you all xx
