Next sat marks my 12 months since I was diagnosed I can’t believe it’s been a year so much has changed I’m different.. I’m not the same Pam I was 12 months ago it’s surreal really how cancer can change you.. my first mammogram and ultrasound are booked for Friday I’m nervous as my breast and under arm are still sore a year on..I think the radiation really affected me..  I will need some meds to get through the mammogram especially!!

    It's nerve wracking isn't it. It's taken me to my fifth year not to be in a nervous paddy. We all change in some ways but I think the inner core of who we are survives! Very best wishes, here's wishing you all clear!

    I think we all can relate. Deep breathe and hope it goes smoothly for you.

    Good luck on Friday Pammy.  I still had pain from my lumpectomy about 18 months later, the surgeon said it was normal. :)

    We completely understand how you feel @Pammy46.  I've only just had my first anniversary too but I don't think time makes it any easier!! Wishing you all the best for your ultrasound and mammogram - please let us know how you go.   Jane x
