So today I had my surgery for lumpectomy/removal of lympf nodes and reconstruction. Since I was told about my breast cancer I have been so nervous about my treatment yet today I woke feeling very calm after a decent nights sleep. I honestly didn’t expect that. Think shock has eased and my fighting spirit kicked in. Ok I have early stage and good outcome so this has helped me through also.
I can’t praise my local hospital and surgeon enough. They were so good today and treated me like I was only patient there even though they were run off their feet. Im sitting here sore and tired but thankful that’s first part of recovery over. I have two weeks till I see surgeon again and find out results of what was found in lympf nodes. This will determine if I need chemo before my radiotherapy (so far no signs my cancer has spread) so im keeping fingers n toes crossed.
