am very pleased with myself-i had wle last tuesday and on sunday did the race for life with 10 of my female relatives-feel so lucky and loved-i walked it and it took just over an hour-it started off lovely and sunny but ended up pouring down -never been so wet in my life !!have now gone downhill although i am pretending to be ok-i get my results tomorrow-on the one hand i know that whatever they are they can be dealt with-on the other i am frightened it will be bad.here goes-i am hoping for clear margins-no hormones needed-i know i am having radiotherapy-do i sound bonkers if i say that right up to my pre-op i kept thinking they would say that they had made a mistake ???
Wow congratulations on your Walk for Life thats brilliant and sounds like you have a lovely supportive family!
Wishing you lots of luck for the best outcome tomorrow when you get your results. Lucy x
god I cannot beleive you have bounced back so quickly!! how old are you?? did you run before??
my breast nurse said bed rest for a week then pyjamas for a week, and there is no way i could have done much different (ok I got a bit antsi towards the end of the second week.
I take my hat off to you, you must be so resiliant and have such a determined attitude.
I have been told that the fitter you are before radiotherapy the less tiredness you have and quicker it pumpts out of your body, so perhaps you will sail through that too.
fingers crossed for tomorrow–its the waiting and uncertainty that gets you isnt it
aw thanx guys-i have got a fab family-and i am 57 in a fortnight-used to be quite fit but have been avidly reading everything on here and am interested in that fact about your fitness levels and rads-am going to dust off the treadmill-good luck to everyone and thanks for all your support -stella
WOW congratulations on doing the RFL so soon after your opp & NO you dont sound bonkers, I think we all feel this way & Pray the results are good as can be expected.
Good luck tomorrow wishing you all the best let us know how you get on
Hugs

will be thinking of you and keeping everything crossed for you, very very good luck for tomorrow

thanx everyone for your good wishes-i nhave found this site invaluable-the surgeon told me straight away that it was good news-cancer gone-good margins but radiotherapy as it was a high grade-i feel very lucky that the mammagram flagged it up-and very pleased with the treatment that i’ve received-hope everyone is doing okay today-and thanx once again-p.s. have been asked to take part in a trial-taking 2 tablets a day for 5 years but am going to look into all the pros and cons-i feel that i’ve had a problem that’s being dealt with and i can get fit and healthy-i am a bit wary of agreeing to be a volunteer taking meds that have side effects that could make me off co;our-then i feel a bit of a selfish so and so-the tabs are tamoxifen and anastrozole-i would get one of those and a placebo-anyone else done a trial like this ?? or any ideas ??/ thanx all xx
wow … go u girl … well done on the race for life … and good luck xxx
my onc mentioned the trial, but having heard my problem with needles said she would not consider suggeting it, you have to have lots of blood samples taken, so you might want to know exactly what is involved before deciding
