Hello Everyone, Thank you so much for your support. @Sophia1 @outlander @Faith-and-Hope @Appleblossom @Shaz51
I've had the biopsy & they've found that it's related to the breast cancer. Not all the results had come back & they won't now until after xmas, but they are more to do with treatment. All the doctors know I'm not interested in chemo or radiation, I'm also not very interested in their hormone treatments either, I tried that with the breast & it didn't just make me cranky, it gave me rage - I'm not willing to feel like that with what time I have left. I think this means I have breast cancer, well metastasized breast cancer, . . . so it's got nothing to do with my smoking 😉 - that's a bonus! I had to do the appointment at home on my computer, as the local hospital/medical place had no spots, I was worried that if it didn't work it would be counted as my not attending, which gets you kicked off the list - but it worked. I've decided to wait until all the results are back before telling my daughter, it'll be after christmas. That's going to be difficult, she accused me of suicide last time because I didn't want treatments that can make you sick & give you discomfort {hell, they can give you cancer!}. She hasn't spoken to me in the 3 years since then, it will be difficult. But both my sisters know & there is no-one else in my life, & those 3 people have been pretty much in the background for a long time.
