Hi, found lump 18 months ago was due mammogram so didn’t take doctors advise to get it checked through cancer referral as mammogram was the next month. Had mammogram came back clear, assumed it was a blocked mammory duct. In November last year decided it felt a bit bigger plus nipple was leaking green discharge, went to cancer referral again thinking blocked duct. Mammogram again came back clear, had the ultrasound and two tumours found, told there and then it was cancer. Shocked was the first emotion. Had biopsy, and still had in the back of my mind it was wrong. Got my official diagnosis on Friday 13th!!! Left side dc. Had left side mastectomy in January and went brilliantly apart from seroma which has gone down a lot but still a bit left to go.
been waiting for my oncotype to come back, was told 2 weeks, 7 weeks later I’m about to be told on Monday. Feeling very impatient waiting for the plan as every plan for the rest of the year starts with “if I Don’t need chemo”, but the wait is nearly over. Not bothered what the plan is but want to get it started for I can put all of this behind me and enjoy living.
