Hi
I am approaching 57 and just been diagnosed with early breast cancer picked up through routine screening. I have an 8mm invasive ductal cancer currently thought to be grade 2. Lymph nodes look ok and sentinel node will be checked in my lumpectomy. The care I have had has been superb ..3 weeks from initial screening - secondary screening then consultant appointment yesterday on 11th. Surgery booked for 7th Dec and no other tests needed and no further appointments until consent one on 2nd then day surgery on 7th.
I know I have been picked up very early and consultant overwhelmingly positive and mostly I am too but I would love to hear other positive stories to read when I'm feeling low. I am very healthy generally so this was shock. I am blessed with 4 grandchildren ages 8 to 15 already with more planned and want to feel positive and forward looking. The cancer chat forums are great but don't usually have people who have come through the other side and moved on and that is what I would love to hear about. Thank you in advance
