Hello,
I hope you are all doing ok.
I have my 6th round of chemotherapy on the 29th December if all goes to plan, and I have a date for my operation on the 24th of Jan.
I have had an appointment with the surgeon and the oncologist today which has left me feeling meh.
The surgeon said that the chemo had really worked well on my nodes but my breast tumor is still the same size as the start. He said the lump is free so not attached to the chest wall and he will also take all of my nodes away.
The oncologist has said that it's going to be more than likely that I'll need more chemo after my operation and it'll be another 6 rounds!!
Surely if they take the cancer away it would have gone or does it not work like that, I am so confused and upset. My daughter gets married in the early summer and I now just feel like I will for sure still be on treatment by then living these shitty side affects bald.
Has anyone had any positive outcomes when the operation has been done and the cancer has gone more than the MRI showed?
