Hi all. I received the date for my mastectomy yesterday. Although I've known it was coming, I was diagnosed 9mths ago, it was still a shock.
Part of me knows I need the op, but the other part of me doesn't want it.
I feel quite angry with ppl. They're saying how good it is that I've now got the date after all this time. I know they mean we'll, so I thank them & sort of agree. But I don't feel relieved. I don't want to lose a breast.
This will take a few days for me to take a few days for me get my head around the fact that this is really happening now.
Is this a normal reaction? I have so many mixed emotions.
Hi Poppies
What you're feeling is perfectly normal. I know when I was going through treatment the thought of losing a breast made me anxious at times.
Wishing you the best of luck with your operation.
Best wishes
