Hi all. Thought I should finally post and say hello.
My wife is currently in surgery for a right mastectomy and sentinel node biopsy. ER+5 grade 3. It's grown even since diagnosis 6 weeks ago, and we're both pretty convinced she has secondaries due to right sided lung issues (breathlessness, pain in right shoulder) and right sided rib pain, nevermind everything else that is right sided that's been going on since easter.
I'm terrified. I keep having horrible intrusive negative thoughts that just knock the wind out of me. And I honestly can't even imagine how SHE must feel as she's the one who has it.
She should be out of theatre in a couple hours, hopefully all will be well surgery wise and post op. Then all the chemo and whatever else they decide will start, as soon as humanly possible due to it being aggressive.
My head in a mess.
I love her so much.
Guess I just needed to vent.
Hi BigLors
Welcome to our community, I hope you find being here useful.
Fingers crossed for a successful surgery, I know too well that waiting to hear they have been moved to recovery and then back to the ward, glad you found space to vent on here.
Hope you get some clarity on the next stage too.
<<hugs>>
Steve
