I may have done this wrong but I noticed other people using their profile as a blog, so that’s what I’ve done. Just written out a timeline, as much for my own benefit as anyone else’s. I’ve missed out things like the various nipple injections, which are just getting normal at this point, and the fact that the MRI bruised my chest because I have an abnormal rib cage (pectus carninatum, which I didn’t know I had but apparently explains why bras never fit me) or the agony of waiting. I also haven’t mentioned how Macmillan and their various services, including thus forum, have kept me going. Psychologically I couldn’t imagine going through this without you.
Surgery planned on 12th November so it’s round two, ding ding. I’m going for the knockout (me 1: cancer 0)
