First of all I want to say a huge thank you and send all all my heartfelt thoughts to everyone on here. Although this is my first post I have followed so many of you through your journeys while I have continued on my own.

I was diagnosed with tnbc a year last august and had chemo, a mastectomy, more chemo and then radiotherapy - then given the all clear! I had my first clear mammogram last month and was given my next appointment in 5 years time - phew! Obviously still have to have yearly mammograms. I then mentioned having a touch of lymphodema - cue ultrasound scan, another biopsy and I received the results today.

Thankfully all was ok, but the wait over the past week has been a challenge, to say the least! It just made me so aware again of how lucky I am, but also how things can rear up and bite you when you least expect it.

Sorry for the ramble and thank you again to all - you truly are inspirational!!

Hi Pammy14

Lots of ladies don't post as the questions they want to ask, someone asks just before them. Glad all the bad stuff is over & out of the way.

Onward & Upward now

Very Best Wishes

Continuing recovery wishes to you Pammy ! x

I'm surprised they don't want to see you for 5 years. How are they checking you other then the mastectomy on your existing side?

Not what you're looking for?
