Thank you all. I had the double mastectomy. They found a 9.8 cm, a 6 cm, and a 6 cm tumor in my little right breast. It had shrunk from a c to an a cup. Also invasive lobular carcinoma in situ. In my left breast 2.2 cm and 6 and 9 mm tumors and LCIS. My breast had shrunk from a c to a b cup. Now I have an infection and on a strong antibiotic. I start radiation on April 8 for 7 weeks on my chest wall and 5 sessions on my lymph nodes… 5 days a week for 8 weeks total. Then hormone therapy… estrogen level was 97%. P—3%. Still in lots of pain. I do have leukemia and immune disorders so this may be why. My red blood counts are really low as are my white blood counts. This is a worry but I have a ton of MDs who are trying to figure me out. But… I try to keep my smile and look at the world with rose colored glasses. During the mastectomies, I had hemorrhaged and after had a code blue for 80 seconds… so I look at the world as a gift. Smiles and happy Palm Sunday.
