what a difference a day makes....

Less than one minute read time.

Well it is true, your world can turn on its head in a matter of moments. I had a mammogram on Monday 28th Sept followed by a biopsy on Tuesday and seeing consultant again on Monday 5th October for final results and plan of action.

 

I came onto this website on Monday terrified, but my god what wonderful people are on here. The encouragement that I have had and the inspiration is awesome. I never expected to be in this position ( I don't suppose anyone does) but here I am and I now realise I am not the only one.

Today is the first day I have not felt sick to my stomach and have even managed a Dorito or 2 ...big step for me and that feeling of impending doom is nowhere near as heavy.

This is all down to the wonderful people that have messaged me and reassured me and I cannot thank you all enough.

Take care everyone

Love Terri xxx

    Thanks you all.

    Completly parked up on paranoya street tonight, have been feeling sick and dizzy for a few months now and now Ivw got it into my head that the cancer is else where and this is secondary in my breast. Did anyone else feel sick n dizzy all the time, when I went to the docs before they said it was just down to low blood pressure but it seems now every little thing is major......apologies for the neurosis xx

    Well, you DID say you were down to a Dorito or two...that would make anyone dizzy/sick.  Not knowing/waiting for info is VERY tough.  I try to stay distracted (hard, but I try) and arm mysrlf with questions on a pad so I'm not a stammering noodle head at the Doc's office.  Somehow it makes me a bit calmer.  I guess the 'preparedness' makes me feel in some kind of control of the situation.  We're with 'ya...xx
