On the 6th July while trying on a dress I noticed one boob looked smaller. The nipple slightly inverted.  My age 73 years. 

On the 6th August the GP referred me to a one stop breast clinic. Following several hour and biopsies  i wasgiven a follow up appointment for 16 days to see a surgeon.  The surgeon confimed Invasive Ductal carcinoma and advised excision of breast tumour and sentinel lymph node. 17 days later I had the surgery.

25 days later I was told I required excision of all lymph nodes. One month follow up i was told 9 lymph nodes were positive.  

I would need a CT scan and bone scan.  I had infact had a CT scan done 5 weeks earlier as I was unhappy with the time they were taking.  The CT scan had been put on back burner!!!   The following day I was told spread to bones

I'm having bone scan tomorrow and seeing Oncologist wednesday.  This is my experience with the NHS and I feel it is disgraceful
