Well , this is not a recurrence, which is good and bad I guess. It is another primary in the other breast. As you know...this is a rare thing so now they are suspecting possible gene issue although I am older for some of them. They did do genetic testing, so I should have an answer in a couple of weeks I hope.
The hardest thing for me is all of the choices....weighing everything. The first time around was an easy choice...this time not so much. I cannot believe this and the thought of going through it again in the future makes me nauseous.
I had a very bad day yesterday...today my oncologist called and went over everything with me so I feel a bit better....but still pretty overwhelmed.
I will be seeing a plastic surgeon this coming week to look at options. My mind is spinning from all of the choices. None are appetizing as you know. I keep having to remind myself that there are worse things in the world that people are dealing with. Sometimes that helps...other times I just feel awful and I suppose I need to do that.
