Surgery Tomorrow
Back from my Ultrasound this morning at Magee Womens Hosp/Pittsburgh to look at a second "suspect area" on my left breast. Doc said it is a cluster of systs...nothing to worry about at this time. Surgery tomorrow to remove the two tumors from right breast tomorrow. I am anxious to get it in and over with.
I have a thought that I wanted to share with my support friends. I have only had 2 weeks to digest my DX, handle my new very fragile emotional status etc, but I can't help feeling that .......I will have the surgery(segmental mastectomy) tomorrow, find out by the end of the week if nodes are involved, but even if they are or their not, this HER 2 cancer will return in my body, its just a matter of where & when. I am 37 with two young children, just can't help feeling that with HER 2.. the odds of beating it are similar to the odds of winning the Power Ball lottery. Help me out...do you all feel this way?
