hi everyone well 1 week tomorrow had my lumpectomy and node biopsy so fingers crossed, next friday is results day!! the operation went fine in hospitalfriday 14th at 8.30 had needle injection with isotopic then marked up for entry cut X marked the spot then went off for surgery given the cannular in hand for anaethestic and blue dye for visual accuracy of lymph nodes, 2.45 asleep, then back on the ward at 6.30 and then tea and toast trip to the loo home by 9pm. All went well staff wonderful other women some in the same situation as myself some awaiting differnt procedures all laughing and talking nice calm atmosphere, family members who were accompanying patients did look concerned but eventually the fun and laughter lifted their spirits too. So now just waiting for histology off the pathologist for grading and future treatment reccommended. Intially told 15 treatments radiotherapy followed up with 5 years endoctrine meds to prevent future cancer returning so on the results off next week round 2 will begin. Big hugs and much respect to all sufferes and their friends and families who are supporting them. xx
