Just diagnosed and wanting to talk to people who understand

Thanks Jo.Just want to know what I am dealing with, dry retching will be the order of the day I think.
Thanks Ange, how are you and Eric and Ernie ( the lumps)?

I am ok. They are “affection ally” known as the invasive Aussies ( Kylie & Danni) Lol!!! Had a bit of a Downey on Saturday questioning why I am having a masectomy but I know all the reasons why. I really hope they have got all of yours so you can move on with your treatment. I think we all know it’s the waiting and not knowing that’s the difficult part. Bug hugs xxxx

Kylie and Danny,do they sing?Couldnt cope with that!!!Think when it goes a bit less hectic you have time to reflect and get more freaked out by stuff. If you want to question why you are having mastectomy you could ring BC nurse and discuss may help you get it clearer in your own mind .

Big hugs!!! Xx

I know why. They are spread in different areas making a lumpectomy of each one difficult plus it will be better for me in the long run. Just had one of those days. Not bad really as I have not had a really bad day since diagnosis. Xxx

You are doing well just having one bad day!!Hits you when you least expect sometimes.

Sure does. I am just taking each day at a time.x

Hi sponge bob :slight_smile: no I am going for delayed reconstruction. Who is your consultant? It’s nice to speak to some one close by :slight_smile:

Sending you big hugs for today Jull. Thinking of you and remember only too well how I felt. X

Thanks Francine, how’s the wind?

Keep us posted Jill. Thinking of you today xx

Spingebob52 wow!! I have only seen 1. Have spoken to 2 breast care nurses. Did it take a long while for then to diagnose you? I feel like it has taken forever xx

Up and down or should I say out and in! Fed up of waiting for results, just want to get my surgery organised and get on with life. I have a business to run so need to plan and organise, lol. No chance of that with the b*****y BC!

Hi Jill

How did it go today? Hope it was good or reasonable news but even if it wasn’t you’ll get through it. Us ladies are a strong bunch ?? very frustrating day for me. Went to the dentist for a clean but was told they won’t do anything until I’m 6 months post any surgery! Risk of infection. Ridiculous, surely it’s more important to have good dental hygiene before an op. Soon as I get my endoscopy results, should be anytime now, i’ll see the BC again to discuss the surgery. X Francine

Phew Claire ,I was really worried about you. , didn’t want to share my good news when you had bad news. I will send you my phone number by private message and if you want to text me you can .

Ahh the lovely palpitations!

Fantastic news Jill. You know where you are going on the rest of this journey. I am pleased for you xx

Hi Ange, will be here for you and “Kylie and Jason” , we will all get this sodding thing to bugger off by some means or other.

Jill delighted for you,  good to have a plan to work with

I also had appointment with oncologist today and have a week now to decide whether or not to have chemotherapy,  very disappointed and am struggling to get my head around the issue.  Yes or no?

Any thoughts ladies? 

friends and family have been bombarding me with questions and I am just crying all afternoon and this evening saying that I don’t know what the F* im gonna decide

sheena xx
