Hi
I found a lump in October went to my doctor and given antibiotics, when that didn’t work I went to A&E another course of antibiotics and a referral to clinic I had mammogram and scan and was told it was an abscess another two lots of antibiotics. Two weeks later I went back scan again antibiotics appointment made for end of January. Over Christmas pain started didn’t feel right I rang the clinic and was saw just after new year, another Dr saw me and said biopsy . And gave me more antibiotics, on the 9th was told on my own it TNBS.
know I have had scans in lymph nodes and gone to liver PET scan shown pelvis was told this over the phone so now another MRI scan on my Pelvis. I was being positive but I feel guilty upsetting my family and mad that I didn’t push at the earlier appointments can’t stop crying. I am starting Chemotherapy and immunotherapy on Tuesday so scared.
Morning, someone else not sleeping, sorry to hear about diagnosis this cancer is scary. Its happening more now with people being told either on their own , or in my case driving home, you cant believe it can you. Keep the positivty please it will help you along this journey. I was diagnosed 20 years ago with breast cancer, unfortunatly i was also diagnosed 4 years ago with secondary bone cancer with spread spine, pelvis, and many more, cancer is nasty. Why do you feel guilty upsetting your family, you did not do it purpose, no one knows what is going to happen. Every single person on here would probably say the same, why didn't i push harder and get seen sooner but do you know what its not all that simple so don't beat yourself up about it. Good luck for next Tuesday with chemo and immunotherapy treatment. I am in fact going to see my oncologist this morning, about my cancer treatment as my cancer has gone rouge " whatever that means " so fingers crossed i will probably have to start a new chemo its all so scary. Dawn x
Thank you why are nights always the worst!
I am normally positive but it’s one thing after another. I got a few hours sleep and again I will put on my big girls knickers and start fighting again. I hope your appointment goes well today. Positivity will get us all through the bad days xx
