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.

Hi moomy
great minds and all that lol I’ve ordered some
wire on amazon for nose clip on masks . I was lucky found some shearing elastic in sewing box . Along with interface I also have a brand new white cotton base valance 
A friend sent me this one she had made her daughter lives in Germany and has been making them there .margaret x
I saw an excellent simple one, a tube with a long ribbon; you put the ribbon round your neck, thread both ends through the tube and then tie round your head and adjust the tube to suit! I will put a layer of interfacing in the inside and add something like a twist tie to make the nose fold. If it’s loose then a tube cut from old tights hold it tighter.....
