  • Hi,your story sounds very much like mine  ,I am frightened cannot sleep my happy self is now a depressed walking zombie waking at odd hours,,,
    I hope you  feel better very soon,& your pain eases ❤
  • Hi it’s 6.30am and I’m awake, sleeping is hard at the moment. My story started at Breastscreen, recall to hosp, diagnosed a wk later, to my dr, then breast surgeon, then mri, then reconstruction surgeon, then op 2 wks ago. Left breast, no chance of lumpectomy, so mastectomy and latimuss dorsi from my left side back. I’m strapped up and helpless, so in the healing phase, it will be a long one. Hope your coping ok.
  • Hi thanks for contacting me, how are you going? ,,no date not as yet, I was at the hospital Friday for the MRI results but I worry having the mastectomy (left breast) plus reconstruction might be to long 
  • Hi Melzzs I’m a newby also, but the more I explore the more I learn and the connection of others who really do understand the overwhelming feelings. Do you have a date for your operation? The waiting was hard but I look back and am great full that I had time to process the roller coaster of emotions. 
  • @Mez_BCNA, can you please pop the post from @Stillstanding on its own so others will see it and respond ?  Thanks.
