At last! So I called the Dr’s office and demanded my results (aka, asked really nicely that they get them to me in time for my plastic surgery appointment tomorrow morning) and they called me back about 5:00 to explain that a) there was nothing to be found at all in the other breast and b) the tumor is a little larger than originally seen on the ultrasound, around 1.5 centimeters, but no other cancer anywhere else in the left hand breast. This is extra awesome news as the type of cancer I have can be in multiple places in the same breast and has more of a tendency to be present in both.
I also went to my first breast cancer support group tonight at the hospital I go to. It was me and four other women with a combined age of around 270 years, but all were survivors and very inspirational. By one lucky coincidence, the hospital is next door to one of the best malls in the area and also, coincidently, Nordstrom’s was having a shoe sale, so I am now the owner of a great pair of flats. New shoes and my favorite earplugs in a three day period – how lucky am I?
Happy to hear about your news 🙂 New shoes too! You go girl!
