Oh geez just seeing this. I am incredibly sorry to hear the news, but it sounds like things are looking positive. I'll be thinking of you and checking in! |
So very sorry you got a positive result. Hoping you will only need the lumpectomy. Wishing you a full and quick recovery. |
Jeanie, I'm sorry you have to join this club. I had my bc surgery 14 yrs ago this June 15. I had lumpectomy with no rads (my choice). I wish you all the best. I know that you want this out ASAP but I learned that bc is not an emergency. Learn all you can about the type and grade of your bc. The more you know the better choices you can make for yourself. |

Since the bad area is currently confined to the one area or so the pathologist thinks, I was sort of thinking it could spread in a few more days or weeks perhaps if it's not removed. Who knows whether a stray cell is out there now floating in the bloodstream ready to take hold in a lymph gland and replicate? That's what I'm worried about. I am thinking about getting a second opinion but wonder if some spreading of bad cells might not happen within the time it would take to do that. Do you mind my asking if your doctor recommended radiation or gave you a choice? |

I can not believe I didn't see this thread till know. Jeanne I will be sending many prayers |
Yes, my dr recommended radiation and I visited the radiology dr. They were not happy that I did not do "the gold standard" but it was my decision - my body. Years later another dr told me that my type of bc was often over treated and she said I made a good decision. My type of bc was DCIS (ductal carcinoma in situ). |
Jeanie, Sheila had a positve biopsy, when she was just 22-the cancer was contained, and they were able to remove it all. We are praying very hard, it will be the same for you. I was very sorry to read your post. Rich |
Wishing you the most healing thought and prayers for a smooth surgery and a speedy recovery. Stay positive !! |
