Hi Everyone  Hope you are all doing well. Im not feeling to great after pathology results yesterday they feel that i will need more chemo and radiotherapy. Awaiting call from oncologist as not sure yet what plan is all i know is   There is one node left that he couldn't get in surgery . He is not sure if cancerous or not.  He removed 9 lymph nodes 6,/9 were cancerous . Im just dreading the thought of more chemo after all the problems that i have had . I was praying i would just need radiotherapy.  My head is all over the place  Love Daisy xxx ... View more

Hi  Had my pathology results today although got margins in breast following Mastectomy and Axillary node clearance. There was one lymph node that couldnt take away due to being so close to vein . So they have recommended radiotherapy and further Chemotherapy which i think may be  oral as is TNBC . Just feel so upset as thought it would be finally coming to the End as i had so many bad reactions to previous chemo and ended up in AE with anaphylaxis.   Has this happened to anyone else ?  Life feels so hard at moment as  our beloved dog  passed away last week. So was hoping for some good news today . Just dont know how to get through all this anymore . Love DAISY XXXX     ... View more

Hi Everyone  Hope you are all doing ok. Not posted for a while as my beloved dog of 11 years has died . We are heartbroken. She has a seizure as i went in for surgery for mastectomy and Axillary node clearance.  It was so hard as i didnt know what was happening as i was in hospital. She has been such a wonderful companion     During surgery the anaesthetic broke my  front tooth . Surgery gone ok . The drains are where it is painful. So i was glad to have them out on wednesday. He said couldnt see Tumour in breast area  but surgery took longer due to lymph nodes matted. The drains were not painful on removal and managing now on paracetamol and ibuprofen.  Got pathology results on Wednesday afternoon which im nervous about. Has anyone started Radiotherapy yet ?  Love and Best wishes to you all Daisy xxxx   ... View more

Thanks Shi for the support. I think its not helping with not having anyone to come with me. Im hoping that the surgery will ease the pain in my chest and under my arm. Not sure yet if it will be day surgery ( they seem to aim for this )  Will do the exercises and take it easy afterwards. Love Daisy xxx ... View more
