On Friday I had an appointment with the Dr. at the radiation center. I will be starting radiation 2 to 4 weeks after my surgery and will have it in 3 different spots. Radiation will only take about 15 minutes but it will be 5 days a week for 6 weeks. So in that aspect it will be very time consuming.
Today I had an appointment with my surgeon. We talked about my surgery on July 11. We also talked about doing a double mastectomy. The plan is to do a double mastectomy but only starting with the breast that has cancer in it and then next year when I do reconstruction I will have the other side done.
The type of cancer I have even though you can feel it, it is very hard to find on a mammogram. It is also known to move from one breast to the other. So that being said, we figured this would be my best option.
Tomorrow is my last chemo. I am glad to get that step behind me and that it went so well.
Thank you for all your prayers and support. We could not have made it this far without them.
