Depression And Death

@Snowflake I'm sure you won't die. Hope things go well in surgery and you are on the mend and feeling better soon. :hug:

I'm home-in pain about a 5/10, under 3 blankets/ice pack, a fire going in fireplace and tea. :)

Glad to hear that you are home. Now..... you've had 2 surgeries 2 weeks. You really need to rest and take care of yourself. I don't give a rats ass, who wants what, who ask for this, or whatever.... you REALLY do need to rest and let your body/mind recover. They've been through a lot in a short time.

Try not to over-do things either. Just rest!!!!

After almost 2 hrs at oncologist I was told no chemo. I do need radiation and after that I start tomoxifin - I had the BRCA blood test to see if I carry the cancer gene. (My mother had pancreatic cancer, sisters and mom hysterectomies) if positive I need to get ovaries removed and bilateral mastectomy. Ugh ugh ugh. See radiologist 10/24 and oncologist again 10/28.

@Snowflake "Bangs head on wall." Why didn't they just do the f*cking blood test first to see if you carried the gene???. God that just f*cking pisses me off. To put you through 2 f*cking surgeries only to tell you this!?!?!?!?

f*cking assholes. I'm so sorry, I wish I had something positive to say at this point, instead of just swearing about stupid asshole drs.......

Are you ok??? As ok as a person can be with this kind of news??? Shit!!!!!!

 

[Snowflake]

Well -the percentage of those with gene is low. However-I do have bad luck in life. Lol.

My husbands response was that's ridiculous-your not going to go through that -almost like getting cancer again is better. Doc did say mine was the slowest growing cancer and with radiation and tamoxifen the chances of it NOT returning was over 90%. He was amazed by how many biopsies I had -thankfully all benign.

My husband is majorly depressed and says I'm fine compared to him. Pain is 10x worse with this surgery. I am in tears inside trying not to cry -miss my t and hate my t at the same time.

@Snowflake men, don't get me going about men and breast. I just opened my mouth in another thread and I don't think my opinion was much appreciated. But, it was my opinion.

Why is your hubby depressed???? Sorry, I have no patience today for anything. I would tell him to get his head outta his ass and man up. I'm bitchy today, with stupid people I've dealt with at work. So, him being depressed when you've been through the wringer just irks me. God, right now I could use a drink, it I'm a recovering alcoholic, been dry too many yrs to start back up.

The pain your in, I can totally understand why... 2 surgeries and you didn't heal from the first one and just had the second. I hope that they gave you more Vicodin???? Or something stronger????

Try and rest.... try to be strong. I know you can do this... you've proven just how strong you are!!!!

@Snowflake men, don't get me going about men and breast. I just opened my mouth in...

Yep I got Vicodin. Lol.

He's depressed with work and his brother (his own sibling issues). He says he has taken of me this past month now I need to take care of him. I told him he needs a therapist or meds -he said only I take "chill pills." He said if I can't take care of him like he's taken care of me then let's get a divorce. He's not fun.

Sorry about how your feeling. I'm bitchy too-

 

[Deleted member 541]

Well, hubbys depressed. Hmmmmm. I agree, he needs a therapist and meds. I'm sorry, you'd think that in this circumstance he would have been able to have a bit of compassion and be able to understand that this could be serious.

Men..... his attitude/behavior is just one of the reasons I choose to be single.

I'm hoping that your pain level is more tolerable and you are feeling a bit better today...

Just checking in to see if you're ok?!?!?

I am okay - tired and lightheaded. Some discomfort. I go back to work tomorrow, which is fine and I see my therapist as well-(which is another issue).

Hope your doing okay. :)
