It's the day I've been dreading. In the waiting room, my heart is in its usual state of almost catapulting itself out of my rib cage. Luckily my amazing boyfriend is with me and he helps to settle my nerves.
After over an hours wait, we are finally called in. My consultant shares the good news, essentially it's all good. Despite being invasive, the cancer hasn't spread outside of my breast. My lymph nodes and bones are clear.
The scan has however shown that there is actually two lumps in my left breast so they'll need to add a savi scout marker during another ultra sound scan prior to my op.
The scan also revealed a 4-5cm cyst on my ovary so I'll be sent for further scans and blood tests for that.
I feel like a weight has been lifted. I was so scared that the cancer had spread to my spine because I've been suffering with back problems for a few months. Now I can hopefully get a good nights sleep for once and just look forward to having the cancer removed in a couple of weeks.
