I´m leaving...
Oct. 22nd, 2014 12:59 pm... the hospital today.
The good news are all the tissue the removed was healty, no trace of cancer. And my new silikon breast looks and feels like eigthteen. :-)
The Doctors don´t recommend a radiation therapy anymore ("you don´t need it") but still recommend on the chemotherapy (wich I still don´t want).
Further more they recommend me to a study at the Collone University were they reserce the breast cancer inheritage (sorry probely bad english). And since the cancer has hormon receptors the recommend a anti hormon therapy.
I´m still debating with my self about the chemotherapy and even the doctors have to admit that the procentage of recovering for me will increase with chemotherapy only by 1 - 3%. But since it increases they are moraly suppose to recommend it.
So go figgure your self...
It is a hard discission to make.

Okay Okay it maybe shouldn´t come as a surpries but the SPN family is really caring about each other.
I had a awful day the doctor needed three tries to get the needel in my vein. The other weekend doctor is so much for the chemotherapie and the there is this beautiful october day outside and I´m stuck in here.
But then I got those wonderful get well wishes and they are all wellcome and needed! My parents showed up together with my little girl and later my hubby and I went (not allowed!) on a walk to the next door cemetary. This is the old town cemetary and if the would film SN in Germany it could really be a good location.
So now I´m back in my hospital room (since today I´m all to myself) I just had my last antibotica transfusion and hopefully the will take out the (I don´t know right english word) drainage out tomorrow.
I would like to tell you what the Professor B. told me about my futer treatment. Since my tumor got hormon receptors I can and I will get a hormon treatment. Because I now have an silicon implant I need to have a radiation (again I´m not sure that this is the right english word) for an even better prognosis (1-2% better) they would like to give me a chemotherapy.
My mother had breast cancer twice (!) and I know how hard the chemo is on the body. So I´m really thinking hard what to do next.
I will talk to some other doctors and will hopefully find the right way for myself.
Thank you for your great support. I hope I answered all the mails I got.

Back in hospital
Oct. 12th, 2014 06:32 pmAs promissied I keep you informed. Well I had a lousy day. Today I went back in the hospital and will have my second operation tomorrow. I finally got my test results back 3 out of 4 results are good but one number is not so good (or bad) and now my doctor is talking about chemo.
I´m not so sure about this. Just because one stupid number isn´t right I should suffer a chemotherapy?! I´m not sure I want this...

Bad news: I´m going back into the hospital on October the 1st or 6th and have another operation :-(
and now I know how much that hurts....
Good news: I´m home again. The wound still hurts but it is getting better. The lymph was cancer free and they do a uPai/PAI test to figure out if I need a chemotherapy.
So guys keep you fingers crossed or Daumen drücken or what ever you guys do to wish luck :-)
Just an update:
I´ll go back into the hospital on october the 15th. Operation is one day later. Still no news on the uPai/PAI test.
