We are trying to decide which route to take. MD Anderson or Florida Hospital. Both seems equally impressive. MD Anderson seems to get the ball rolling now as I have not even heard from Florida Hospital regarding my appointment request with the surgeon.
1st team:
MD Anderson - Dr. Danelle Chambers, Dr. (oncologist)
2nd team:
Florida Hospital Cancer Center:
Dr. Louis Barr, Surgeon- Dr. Rebecca Moroose Oncologist.
Have the appointments lined up for this week:
Tuesday : Dr.Pope - Plastic surgeon in case I am given the chance for immediate reconstruction.
Thursday : 10:45 OB-Gyn checkup, my regular OB-Gyn is out of town
Friday :1 PM Oncologist from MD Anderson Dr.
Monday ( August 13th) : Appointment With Dr. Rebecca Moroose from FL Hospital.
Tuesday ( August 14th) : 7:00 MRI for both boobs.
Wednesday (August 15th): 9:45 Dr. Chambers, whe will have the preliminaty results of the mri to determine the action plan.
Talked to manager who was very understanding, I am pulling myself off slightly from new issues since I will be out for doctor appointments a lot these 2 weeks.
Learned that if I elect to get a masc, I will be out of commission for about 3 weeks, 1 week immobile due to the drains. Then after each chemo off for 1 week. Wow.. did not think it would be that bad.
I have to file for short term disability I was advised by Melody who has gone through this last year.
