well hi guys and gals i think im slowly getting used to this site, and posting, i introduced myself recently, had my biopsy results on the 2cnd november 2020, i have DCIS with invasive DCI, tumour is Grade 3, is around 36mm, HER2 negative, and positive for oestrogen and progesterone, it made it more real having that conversation with the Consultant, if that makes sense. at the moment the treatment option is surgery, radiotherapy, and hormone therapy, i also had to have the Mirena coil taken out straight away as this apparently can feed the hormone receptors in the cancer.
it was strange as the counsultant looked at the mammogram and maginified it could not see it at all until he looked at the ultrasound so the sneaky thing has hid. I was booked in for MRI on the 10th November which i had yesterday, that was an experience in itself.
Dependent on results of the MRI, I may need other ultrasounds, and other things, if there is anything else lurking about. So i had the contrast MRI. Over the last few weeks ive gone from one extreme to another, trying to keep walking as i love this, find myself getting tired more, but think that this is due to the emotional aspect of this. My right breast sometimes aches again not sure if this is not psychosomatic. This certainly changes whom you are as a person, and I'm listening to me more than i ever did as in resting etc.
Some days i wake up and think nothing of it, then it creeps up on me that 'oh I have cancer', and to top it off last week one of my sons partner that was expecting a baby miscarried.
Work has been really good, its the emotional side, i think that i am coping and then it hits again.
Anyway my rambling over with hope everyone is staying safe.
