It is over one year now since my diagnosis of invasive lobular carcinoma. The surgery, chemo and radiation are memories now. Almost like it really didn't happen to me, but it did. I have the scar to prove it. Still going to specialists for regular check ups. On Tuesday I am going to Albany to see a plastic surgeon about reconstruction. I'm a little scared because it is a big surgery. I know I will feel a lot better about myself after however.
I have been loosing weight that I gained since getting my ovaries removed. The old fashioned way with dieting and exercise. I am on a new pill to cut my hormone level even further.
I am hoping that after the reconstructive surgery, I can go back to work. Not at my old job, too stressful. Maybe get re-training thru Social Security.
