hi all . just wondered how you all got through the time from when your diagnosed untill your operation i keep looking at the date every day waiting for it to be the 22nd and it seems to be taking ages … what do you ladies all do with the time in between ? x hope everyone is doing ok x
Hi
I can sympathise with how you are feeling.
I was diagnosed on 4th Feb and my operation was on 4th March.
I had a month to wait but it went so slowly, especially the last few days seemed endless.
I’m now waiting for 17th April for my appointment to find out my treatment plan.
It’s a waiting game…
Good luck with the operation
Jaye xx
Hi Angel, I am feeling the same way. My op is on 15th. So it will be four weeks since seeing the surgeon. I finish work on Thursday, so work will keep me occupied until then, but its tough isn’t in. You are kind of in limbo wanting treatment to start but then at the same time not wanting it to arrive. I love reading but just can’t get into a book at the moment, and even find watching TV that I’m restless. Im trying to just relax with my two children who are now on their easter holidays knowing its going to be very different next week for all of us. We had a holiday booked over easter which we’ve had to cancel so feeling cheated really. I am trying to drink heaps of water now in the build up to my op, rest lots and eat well in the hope it will aid my recovery. I hope the time passes quickly for you. Take care. Xx
Hi Angel77,
My op is also on the 22nd and am finding this waiting not good; I am worrying what might be happening to this thing whilst it is still inside me. I was diagnosed on 1/4/14 and they had said it would likely be 7-10 days before op but then it’s easter so a bit delayed. Am trying to keep busy, have kids off on school holidays, but like you keep just counting the days 
Hi angel, I’m having a wire put in before the op. I have been told to call on monday , the day before op to find out the time of my op. It is all I can think off now and I’m getting a bit scared about it all. But I will let you know how I get on. Xx
Hi
I too am worried about the delay between daignosis and operation though pleased to see that others have not had to wait so long. I had a mamaomgram on 19 Feb, letter calling me back was delayed so it so was 25 March before I had the follow up and the news. Saw the surgeon 3 April. Though i was expecting the op on 14 April I was told that wouldnot be possible and now it is 28 April because of Easter. I am not been told the pathology results despite asking or even what type of breast cancer I have - I am told they do not want to say anything til they do the operation. so I am having to work it out myself from joining up dots. I may not be getting the right picture but in the absence of someone on the team telling me it is al lI can do. I ahved the imptression it is at lweast a 3cmtumour and is behind the nipple and proabbly there for 2 years. I missed it completely in my regular self examinations. I am trying to decide between a Mastecomy or breast conserving surgery but maybe the pathology report would not help with that decision.
hope all goes well for everyone.
