Hi Everyone 

I am feeling so low today it was the 2nd of December the ultrasound revealed I had Cancer, 2nd January went for biopsy HER2 positive and 1 benign a few weeks later another biopsy for the benign but ultra sound could not do it so another 9 days and MRI biopsy 2 weeks later do tot tells me DCIS not benign and that I will need a lumpectomy and sentinel biopsy booked for 24 of March, I know these are as everyone keeps saying 9 mm HER positive was December) and 1 mm DCIS , I have not had my confirmation of my operation because I live in Spain and they are on strike so I do not know when my operation will be now I just want them out to prevent any more growth as the doctor said on the 24 of February the HER was starting to spread I can only guess that’s because nothing has been since 2 of December I am going crazy and my translator said there is nothing I can do I just have to wait and now there will be another delay while they catch up , I am sorry I am just so stressed with all this waiting and needed to vent, thank you for listening when we are all on our journey just different paths x

  • Hi MaggieSpain,  the waiting is the worst.  Once I knew I had breast cancer I just wanted the lumpectomy and treatment to start immediately.  I cannot imagine how frustrating that this must be for you.  Is the healthcare in Spain similar to the NHS here?  Fingers crossed they end their strike and you can get your op ASAP.  Big hugs.
