Bloody Good Bone Scans

Fourth in the Bloody Breast Cancer Series.

Back to the Breast Surgeon today for the results of all the various scans I had on Friday. This is where we cross our fingers that the sneaky little cancer hasn’t gone wandering off into any bones or lymph nodes.

If it has, I am pretty sure that will mean Chemo before surgery. If not, then we can schedule surgery.

That would be helpful as I am feeling very much in limbo right now. It would mean having a bit more of an idea of what the hell my life will look like for the next few months.

I feel like I can’t make any plans and yet we have to see doctors and specialists for the Step-kid that dislocated her knee. We want to plan some holidays and of course I will be recovering and unable to work after the surgery and radiotherapy. How long does that take? And then the ever so fun Anti- Hormone treatment. Hot flashes and brain fogs oh my!

I have seen the Surgeon and the results are good. The cancer hasn’t had a chance to go wandering around. So a lumpectomy and radiotherapy. The surgery will be “within four weeks”.

Apparently he and his mates get together every Tuesday and have a meeting about the various patients and then I go visit him at the hospital next Tuesday but I am not really sure what for.
