UPDATE: I have postponed my surgery to get a second opinion and better care. I am thankful to those who reached out with helpful information. Things are moving quickly and I’ll keep my schedule updated accordingly ❤️
*Today is s**t. Let me explain…I know some ppl know I have breast cancer and are sad or scared or wanting to know how I am constantly or what’s next. The s**t part about this process and it is a process, is waiting. Waiting for someone to answer a phone, waiting for any results, waiting for communication or any reassurance, waiting for a plan of treatment, waiting for ppl to do their job and let me tell you, if you don’t do your own research and advocate for yourself, you don’t know what you are getting. I’m not okay with that! I was diligently progressing in my HRT journey and starting to feel good again to be told I have to get off all of them asap…..oh and with zero help on how to do this because no one knows about HRT and good luck. So today like many days, the worst part is feeling depressed and anxious because I have no progesterone and having very heavy periods and dry skin because of no estrogen and libido? 🤣 not important for women right? .. and waiting on my surgeon to call about very important results that affect my surgery and treatment and physical body but he forgot to call and no one knows where he is. So we try again tomorrow. Never mind trying to get your doctors office to fill out paperwork so you may see some financial support for time off and getting made to feel bad because you are in fact not the only person with cancer and will have to wait, putting off the applications for some stress relief because you are self employed. It’s just all s**t. Thank you for coming to my Ted Talk.
