Hi,
Triple negative breast cancer diagnosis 4 days ago, not coping well. Health care professional myself and need to regain control and understanding.
Desperate to push through required outstanding investigations and get to treatment ASAP.
Petrified of mastectomy, hoping for lumpectomy, dreading chemo
Who knows re the BRACA!! Currently the least of my worries.
Just keen to get to the treatment bit ASAP.
Not sure if its my imagination but the tumour now feels painful, it wasn't before, makes me feel its growing.
Tomorrow its 3D mammogram of both breasts and really not looking forward to the sore one being sqished.
Then axillary USS, sort of hoping it won't be plus axillary biopsy, but equally keen to get as much information as possible to inform treatment plan.
Then off to gynaecologist re ovarian coincidental finding !!!!
Whatever cancer throws your way, we’re right there with you.
We’re here to provide physical, financial and emotional support.
