How many of you ladies are still hanging on to the affected breast? I have not had my msectomy yet and am getting very anxious to do so. I understand that because my mets developed so quickly after my initial diagnosis (1 week) that adjuvant chemo made sense.
But now I up to session 10 of chemo with little to no results AND MY BREAST LOOKS AND FEELS AWFUL.
I am still struggling to get my liver mets under contol via chemo and I understand the priority there but I just think that by going ahead with my surgery - perhaps it could reduce the tumour load a bit and allow my body to concentrate on healing my liver.
I think everyday that it is coming out of my liver and spreading all around my stomach. It is terrrifiying.
Any of you ladies have a masectomy at this point or did all of you have surgery first? Feels out of control right now.
Help - need feedback.
