Wonky boobs and update


My next round of appointments have come through and I'm closer to knowing how 2014 is going to begin for us!

My bone scan is booked for Friday 13th December.. Lets just hope the day doesn't jinx the results!!

My echocardiogram is booked for 19th December .

I'm still waiting for my first oncologist appointment and hope this will be before the new year. It is the oncologist that will take me on the next step of the cancer thrashing mission! I will also find out dates for my first chemotherapy session.

I have also realised that I have rather neglected to mention my ' perfect boob' for quite some time.... well ..... With the poorly one being quite large (swelling)and more pert than it has ever been (temporary implant) the perfect one is in fact feeling a little inadequate!! It's only consolation of course is that a nipple sits in pride of place!!

So .. with the increased swelling in my poorly boob and some leaking of lymph fluid from my wounds ... I had a booby check up with Mr Dawson on 12th December ! Mr D duly recommended that if I could , to bear with the symptoms as to drain the fluid could cause infection and complications ... So on I soldier on with wonky uncomfortable boobs!

Annie the breast care nurse also told me not to panic if the fluid leaks out in a gush from the little wound under my breast !! .. Apparently I have over a pint of fluid there.. Lets hope there's no gushing!
