Well, the verdict is in. I was told today I do have breast cancer. The surgeion says I have (or is it had since they took them out!)2 kinds of tumors in the calcification. 1/2 cm adenol ( I have no idea how to spell it) carcinoma which is an invasive breast cancer, and a 1 cm ductal incitu, non -invasive. He feel he got it all, although the margins were a bit close on part of it. He will take a bit more tissue when he does the centinel lymph node removal. Then we will definately have radiation, and other decisions to be determined. The shock is overwhelming. I am not even 8 months post op from OHS. An I have always been the "pictureof health", whatever the heck that is. My 5 year old son watched me fall apart during the phone call. He asked if my heart "was okay". So, I plan on contacting my cardiologist and my surgeon to aprise them of the news. Will I have to be handled at all differently because of it? I am still in such a state of shock. I remember the fear before the heart surgery, the pain with the healing. I know this is different, and I feel so unprepared. AT least I knew I had a heart problem!
So, let me know, if you can, what to expect.
