Hello I thought I would introduce myself my name is Tanya and I am 51 and just been diagnosed with dcis. I had an mx on Monday and immediate recon using braxon on left side. All this has been so fast for me to take in from diagnosed to op has been three weeks. I have been reading all your posts and have found it so helpful so now I’ve plucked up the courage to say hello and join conversations with you all x
Hi Tanya
Sorry to hear about your diagnosis but i’m glad you found our forum. Three weeks that is quick, but the important thing is you have been diagnosed and treated. You need to do the right thing for you.
Waiting for the results can be the worst. Are you home now? did you have your nodes checked? and what do you have in mind to help the time pass by XX
Hi tanya, i had mx with tissue expander and sentinel node biopsy on Monday too. It os a h7ge shock for you and i bet you have hardly had a chance to get your head around it all.
The good thing is you have been treated quickly. It is hard waiting for results but stay positive as it will help your recovery. I hope you are recovering ok.
Xx
Hi tanya did you have recon taken from your thigh? If so is your leg painful ?
No I had the braxon implant I think it’s quite new it goes over the muscle it looks quite good so far and only been a few days x
Ah yes ive just read up on it! Hope you’re doing ok x
