Hi all
Another newby. I was told yesterday that I have invasive duct cancer and as like many people on here I immediately shut down and just nodded like an idiot. I am trying to get some information from the BC nurse and wondered what I should be asking. I don’t know size or grade. Is that important? They didn’t give me a choice on treatment just a wide local excision and removal of sentinel nodes. He also mentioned something about having injections on day into breast in radiology which will leave temporary blue marks. Followed by 5 weeks of radiotherapy.
I’m now completely floored and wish I had asked for more information as feel completely unprepared for the next few weeks. I think it’s the lack of sleep last night as well but I just can’t stop thinking I need to know more do I can be strong for the coming months.
So any advice or information would be greatly appreciated. I have taken the day off work and am feeling pretty guilty. I haven’t told my family yet either as I am worried about how they are going to react.
Thanks
Sandra
