Once again my fiance went with me to my appointment. This time it was at the specialist centre and we were taken into a nice little room with sofas. I should have twigged something was up when the breast care nurse (BCN) asked if I wanted them to record the session for me (which I said yes to).
My mind was sitting in some isolated place of calm not really taking in the impact of what was being said to me - a very surreal feeling. When I went back and listened to the CD it was as though I...
This wait didn't feel at all like the last one. I was surprisingly productive at work and was bouyed by my fiance reminding me that the biopsy results were benign. Not 'inconclusive', but 'benign' which was a good thing. So, I began to think I'd be fine and it was all a lot of stress for nothing.
I don't know whether to be glad that the stress wasn't for nothing or not ;)
The day I had been waiting for came and this time my fiance came with me. I went for my scans first and there was some confusion over having both a mammogram and ultrasound again as I'd only been booked in for the ultrasound.

Well.............. Here's a happier blog post............
Followers will know that I have been away for a few days, for a deserving re-charge of my batteries.
While I was away, Mum had an appointment with the oncologist and they reviewed how the chemo was going.
They said that the cancer in all areas (lung, lymph nodes and adrenal glands) was responding to chemo and actually shrinking! They used the word remission, but I must stress before we get excited that it just means that its under better...
