Hi all
first time posting.
i was referred to the breast unit on 13th February having found a lump. 2 weeks later I was in the clinic had mammogram, ultrasound and biopsy. The mammogram was clear but they could feel a lump. Consultant said I don’t know why they are doing a biopsy. She fully expected it to be clear. 2 weeks later and a positive biopsy was sent for a scan. Long and short I had a second area in the breast that was a node. My mastectomy and node biopsy was not done till 19th may.
12 days ago I was called in for result and treatment plan. Of the 4 nodes they removed during surgery 3 were positive for cancer. I now need a node clearance but I still don’t have a date for this. I’m so stressed by all the waiting my first op was well out of the 62 days. I left a message for the breast care nurse but no response. The consultant who is nice said I’d hear in a few days. Is there some kind of timescale. Should I be pushing or just try and chill. I lie awake all night feeling the cancer running riot
my lump was a grade 3 idc pr+ es+ her2 - no clue on stage yet
thanks for taking time to read
