My third (and final!!!) surgery was a success! No need to go into the clinical specifics, since I've already "journaled" down this road a time or two before but my surgeon confirmed that this time (finally!!!) the margins were clean, meaning no traces of cancer at the outer edges!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
My next step from here is to oncology where we will discuss radiation treatments. The "team" initially told me the radiation would start 4 - 6 weeks post surgery. My guesstimate makes that mid to late April. 6 weeks, 5 days a week.
I'm healing well. Actually I've gotten a little too good at this - I'm already far too much of an expert on lumpectomies!
More when I know more!
TTFN! :0) :0) :0)
