But not a very patient one!
I've at least got a diagnosis, it's invasive ductal cancer grade 2, but still small, oestrogen receptive but looks as if I might get away with the lymph nodes....and maybe not too much treatment afterwards?
Complex plan, but to begin with, a sentinel node (plus another one or so) removal as day surgery, (a nuclear medicine visit first to get 'the jab' for them to trace) then a gap while that, plus the HER result come back, then because of my previous surgeries for cysts and the fact one resulted in a massive haematoma, therefore scar tissue, I will have a complete mastectomy with an implant. That will be immediately after Easter.
By finding out as much as possible beforehand, the surgeon hopes to prevent too many operations. Obviously I will then need Tamoxifen or similar, so will appreciate helpful advice about that.
But I'd be interested on anyone's 'take' on her plan. I feel reassured that she took time with me, and the BC nurse afterwards spent a good while too.

Happy Boxing Day to all
I had a crafty (front of trashy tv) snooze while family took the dogs on a good 4 mile walk to the hills near here.
feeling very nearly back to normal, phew!
Santa brought lots of Lego and mini Lego-like kits, pic of the mini ones plus a plasticine dog…

Travelling this time of year is such a hit and miss situation, isn’t it, Tired Minion so i hope your journey isn’t too much longer.
Yes, the cost of that kit was pretty high, it was his main present of course! But it’ll keep him quiet for a good week or so
