9 days after my op and feeling better.  now to the breast ca.  the oncology nurse rang me today to say that they decided not to do a mastectomy after all, that they werent gonna do any further biopsies either and that they wanna see me on weds to explain fully what they intend to do and that is just to operate, to operate without biopsies.  hmmmmmmmmmm.  not sure if thats a good idea. they say they dont wanna do a mastectomy in case a lot of the stuff is benign, but without biopsies how do they know if its benign?  so once again, i'm totally bewildered.  oh yeah, one more thing.  they have changed my consultant.  i'm gonna see someone else on wed.  i said i wanna stay with the onc guy i have, but they said that i have to see a different one cos he was the one that made the decisions to do what they're gonna do now.  dont like that either. i've got used to the other one and have a rappor with him.  i dont wanna chop and change, especially without being given the choice.  its not on!anyway, venting outa the way.  today, i feel much better than i have for ages.  i've had lotsa energy, something thats been unheard of for yonks in my life. lol and i got lots done.  not much brain fog today either.  brains actually been working for more than 5 mins at a time. lolhope you all have a really good week.  i'm here for you.  stay positive and keep smiling my friends.love ya
