I am new to this My name is TigerPoppy. I have to start Chemo next week . Still getting use to PICC line. Strange thing is all my past Mamograms have all proved negative. Yet i found a lump in my left arm pit Lymph nodes. After MRI scans CT Scans and Pet Scans, i was diagnosed with Breast Cancer in my Left arm pit lymph nodes and unfortunately left side of my neck Lymph nodes also. Even though my breasts and organs are fine thankgoodness. Am trying to remain as positive as i can, and having a brilliant Oncologist does help. But still a mystery to how this happened and distressing.
I am sorry to read your news, it’s such a shock and a lot to get your head around. Im glad you have a good oncologist and your treatment is due to start. Mine seems to be just in one breast (find out for sure tomorrow about that & treatment). Im not surprised you feel distressed and I’m sending a virtual hug. Keep us posted xx
Many thanks Sarah That means a lot to me. Hope all goes well for you tomorrow. Love and Hugs TigerPoppy.
