I'm back...had my bone scan today, long day lots of hanging around. So now I wait for those results and the CT scan. I'm hoping there is no spread and I don't need anymore scans or xrays. I feel like shit putting it plainly,. Yes I know I'm having the Mastectomy, if just not knowing anything else! Will I need chemo or radiotherapy, how will it affect me plus getting used to having one boob! I'm constantly tired,which is not like me. I'm trying to say positive and keep things light hearted but inside I'm a wreck. Roll on those results!
Hi Musicmumma
Sometimes it's important to have a rant isn't it? The not knowing what the future holds with regards treatment, for me, was the hardest part of being diagnosed.
If you have any questions for the other ladies on this forum, don't hesitate to ask as I'm sure most feel as you do and will be at different stages of their treatments.
Kindest wishes, Lesley
Hi, I had a bone scan yesterday too, an MRI has also been requested. I’ve been told that my treatment will be chemo/radio and surgery or vice versa depending on my Her2 results. I’ve got my next clinic appt on Monday now so I’m hoping I’ll have all the answers I need to get things moving. X
