Well today I got the call I was dreading and I had to go in 2 hours later to see the consultant. It was confirmed I have stage 3 Breast cancer. Tomorrow I will have an MRI and a CT scan to see if it has spread anywhere else other then my breast and lymph nodes. The plan so far is to do a lumpectomy next week and then 6 months of chemo ( I think) it’s all still a blur but lucky my husband was there to take notes. Xx

Sending you hugs

Hi Theresa , I’m sorry you didn’t get better news today but I hope from reading some of the many threads across the forum you can take comfort from all our stories and know that you can do this with plenty of help and support from us all here ? Great that your hubby was there as another pair of ears as it’s so much to take in Will all soon become second nature! XX Jo
Hi Theresa,
Sending hugs too.
It is always such a shock & it is such a stressful time when first diagnosed.
You are not alone here, so do come & use the forum as you need to.
As Helena says, do have a look at the relevant boards so that you will be able to chat to those where you are now & further down the road.
Although it’s a b**ch, at least it can now be dealt with.
