Whirlwind meeting at the European Society of Surgical Oncology Congress in Gothenburg, Sweden. Lots of great discussions and questions after my talk and even better seeing old friends and making new connections. I love that as I move forwards in life, it’s still possible to meet people who connect with such electricity, the conversation just sparks ideas and hunger to do more for our patients

A new rash or redness on the ni**le or ar**la can be a sign of cancer

Paget’s disease is where cancer cells travel up the milk ducts and sit on top of the ni**le.

Some milk ducts end under the ar**la (you
May see them as bumps) so a rash here also needs to be checked

My wonderful patient took photos and has allowed me to share them to help educate others

Fortunately, her skin biopsy came back showing a dermatitis - skin irritation/ eczema. NOT cancer

Think:
🤔 Do I have a skin condition like eczema
🤔Have I changed my body cream recently?
🤔Have I changed my washing detergent?
🤔Do I have a lump?
🤔Have steroid creams not helped?

Make an appointment and you may be asked to try steroids for a week or two. However, if it doesn’t improve you may be referred to a breast clinic

Even then, it’s possible it is not cancer. But don’t ignore it

Some women are told they’re too young to get breast cancer.

Some are told they couldn’t have cancer because their recent mammogram was normal.

Some are told pain is not a sign of breast cancer (it’s very uncommon but not impossible).

Some have to see their doctor multiple times before being referred.

Some have normal imaging and still can have cancer.

The point is to advocate for you.

If you know how your breasts feel, and something is different, then make that appointment and make it again.

Here’s how I hope to be useful this Breast Cancer Awareness Month. I’ll go into detail with various symptoms as the month goes on. But don’t wait for me… check your breasts!

The Audacious Brilliant Surgeons is what we affectionately refer to ourselves. Not through boasting but appreciation for each others support and wisdom. As experienced breast surgeons, is great to always learn from each other and impart gems of knowledge to the next generation of surgeons. Teaching on surgical courses in Bristol, catching up and back to Swindon for a brief evening operating list. I am truly ready for bed! ❤️

The most manic week and Friday still to go

Long procedures:
Therapeutic mammoplasty
Bilateral delayed reconstructions
Bilateral mastopexies and fat transfer
Removal of leaking implants
Breast quadrantectomy and chest wall perforator flap reconstruction and axillary node clearance

Lots of clinics: Tuesday, Wednesday, today and tomorrow

Full after school catch ups:
Rehearsals
A levels and uni applications
Sports kits and matches
Driving lessons and tutors

And of course, laundry!

And to balance it all out:
A run
A spin
Pilates
Arms and abs and lower body weights sessions.

I couldn’t do my job without the physical endurance, strength and mental peace working out gives me.

It takes huge discipline to workout alongside a busy schedule and some weeks I am very lazy/tired and definitely not disciplined!!

But I always feel energised and able to do more, when I’ve exercised.

What’s a good regime for a busy woman?! Let’s create one!

Happy 19 years of marriage . Being here with our girls and reflecting on the past year, feeling fortunate and humbled. So much has happened in the last year, it really hammers home how important family is. Here’s to many more years x
