Try not to worry about your periods fuelling your cancer, my doctor told me my cancer had been there for years slowly growing away, you will soon start your treatment, assume you will have surgery first then drug treatment.
When will you be going in for treatment? Have you decided what surgery you are having? Have they told you the size of the tumour?
I meet with the reconstructive surgeon Tuesday the march 21st. And yes I am having a mesectomy. They did a lymph node biopsy to see if it spread but I'm still waiting on those results.
