JUST TESTED POSITIVE FOR BREAST CANCER

sorry about caps - HARD TO READ IN NORMAL FONT

I AM ALMOST 68 YEARS OF AGE - LOL MY ASTRO SIGN IS CANCER, BDAY IN 2 WEEKS.  RETIRED ON MEDICARE BUT LUCKILY I  DID SWITCH FROM A CHEAP ADVANTAGE  PLAN BEFORE MY FIRST 12 MONTHS of medicare  WAS UP  TO A GOOD BUT HIGH COST G- SUPPLEMENT AS IT DID NOT COVER ME OUT OF STATE WHEN I WENT TO TAKE CARE OF MY NOW 98 YR OLD MOM.

MAMMO 4/27. THEN SERIES OF ULTRASOUNDS, 2D, 3D AND MRI AS THEY COULD BOT FIND BIOPSY AREA.  MRI showed swollen lymph nodes. got biopsy last week of 3 areas, GOT result yesterday. 6/27 AS POSITVE FOR CANCER FROM MY REG DR.

Due to holiday 1st oncology appt scheduled for 7/6 - SO ANOTHER WEEKS WAIT.   what can I expect THEN?  any suggestions for prep? clothing/ time / supplements/ ETC

REG DR SAID THeY WOULD SCAN WHOLE  BODY FOR CANCER IN OTHER AREAS.( i ALSO DID A HOME COLOGUARD TEST THIS SPRING TO AVOID COLONOSCOPY WITH NO ISSUES)

IT has been a VERY  long 2 months OF TESTS (* and should add this mammo was ONLY 6 months after my last mammo ON THAT BREAST that showed no issues) 

So thinking these are fast growing tumors?? Nurse at cancer center after biopsy assured me "this was not an emergency" when i had to wait a week for biopsy results )

I FELT LUMP RIGHT JUST BEFORE LAST APRIL MAMMO, TECH FELT LUMP AT TOP OF BREAST.   SWELLING STARTED AFTER MAMMO COMPRESSION.

(*I also had STERIOHRAPHIC BIOPSY LAST SPRING FOR A MICROCALCIfication PATTERN ON SAME BREAST UNDERSIDE THAT CAME BACK AS NEGATIVE WHICH WAS WHY I HAD A 6 MONTH FOLLOW UP MAMMO AS ABOVE.  ALSO IN MY  20-30S HAD MANY NEEDLE ASPIRATIONS FOR FLUID FILLED CYSTS WHICH I THINK THEY NO LONGER  DO SO THESES SEEMED NO BG DEAL TO ME)

I HAVE BEEN TRYING T0 LOSE WEIGHT AS I WAS IN EXTREME OBESE BMI AND NOW NEED TKR.   IN 2016 SUMMER -FALL DID KETO AND LOW CARB LOST 40 LBS.  GAINED 20 BACK  AFTER HOLIDAYS. RESTARTED KET0 SPRING -FALL 2017 LOST 30   AND   NEW DR GAVE ME 3 MONTHS OF ADIPEX IN THE FALL WHEN I PLATEAUED WHICH I USED VERY SPARINGLY=( OLD DRS NEVER MENTIONED MY WEIGHT HAHA AND WOULD NOT GIVE ME ANY DRUGS WHEN I ASKED-- ) -  LOST 20 LBS MORE  IN 5 MONTHS FOR A TOTAL OF 70 THEN  WHICH PUT ME IN OBESE BMI; AND WAS  A BIT DISCOURAGED WITH A HIGH BAD CHOLESTEROL BLOOD TEST LAST FALL  WHICH MEANT ALL THE STUFF I LOVED ABOUT KETO (DAIRY, MEATS, BACON  BITS I MY SALADS ) HAD TO BE REPLACED...

BUT LAST  MONTH WITH STRESS FROM TESTS AND LOTS OF FAMILY PARTIES I GAINED 8 LBS BACK  ARGH,  BUT  WAS ALSO  BULKING UP ON SPRING BERRIES, veggies and ezekiel bread FOR IMMUNITY WHICH IS NOT KETO OR LOW CARB   AND HAD ALSO ADDED LOTS OF SUPPLEMENTS RECENTLY FOR KNEE ISSUES AND BOOB IMMUNITY - WHICH I HAD TO STOP FOR BIOPSY LOL. (stupid parties served PREMADE mexican wrapped sandwiches or pizza revived  my bread /carb cravings.)

 I MISSED MY MAY GOAL FOR A FAMILY WEDDING IN MAY BY 10 LBS. AND  NO ONE COULD EVEN TELL I LOST WEIGHT LOL.    REALLY WANT TO GET DOWN TO JUST OVERWEIGHT BMI LOL WHICH NOW IS ANOTHER 40 LB AWAY AGAIN.  

NOW THINKING WEIGHT LOSS WAS  DUE TO CANCER AS MY EXERCISE WAS MINIMAL DUE TO MY BAD KNEE-  WHICH I HURT IN SUMMER FALL 2016 USING A FREE BUT BORROWED VERY HIGH OLD VAN OUT OF STATE TO TAKE CARE OF MY MOM .WITHOUT A STEP OR GRAB STRAPS AND I AM EXTREMELY SHORT.   BUT FOOD WAS MINIMAL THIS YEAR  WITH LARGE SALAD SINGLE MEAL  AND SMALL PROTEIN SNACKS  FOR 16/8 INTERMITANT FASTING. TRYING TO GET WEIGHT LOSS BACK ON TRACK BUT EXTREMLY WORRIED WITH WAITS.
