I just had my second surgery on September 20th. They went in through the other surgical site to clear out what was left of the cancer cells. They also took some lymphnodes to test to see if there were any cancer cells in them. They took 3 and they were all negitive but the oncologist wanted one more just to be sure. And of course that one had cancer cells so they had to take a few more to test. I was under for about 3 hours. Now I have a lovly drainage tube hanging out of my side.
Hopefully I get it taken out this week. It is making me gag every time and ew. thats all ew.
I have 2 more doctor appointments this week. One with a plastic surgeon and one with a reproductive specialist to talk about freezing me eggs. That is the scariest thing. Also waiting for the genetic test to see if I have the cancer gene. If I do, I dont even know what Ill do. So many decisions coming my way I am terrified.
I have started a cancer website that I will be posting on when I need help with doctor appointments things like that. Please check it out!
Also on October 12th there is a walk raising money for breast cancer! Check it out donate and join my team!
