Welcome to New Members

Hi @Kimalinka and welcome to the blog!!!  It sounds like you've had your surgery & treatment already - or some of it - so Duck on over to the "Highs & Lows of Survivorship'' or ''Newly Diagnosed'' and tell us your story!!  Warts & all .... I am pretty sure you'll find a few who've shared your highs & lows & if you hit any speed bumps, we may be able to help smooth them out for you!  xx  

Definitely, try & keep your sense of humour 'up there' - we have a really good 'funnies page' (called Friday Funnies, but we add them every day!!)  Just click on the link to add pics and posts ... feel free to add your own!  ;)

When you have some time ... check out this blog by a female British Breast Surgeon who went on to develop Breast Cancer, with recurrence.  Liz O'Riordan was amazed at just how much it changed her life, both mentally and physically ... and validates all our own ‘aches and pains’ ... if your Onc doesn’t believe you when you discuss side effects - get THEM to read this too!

And for your annual checkups, here are some ‘tick sheets’ to help you put your questions together for your medical team.  (Make sure you click on the documents at the BOTTOM of the post, as the others are only sample pages.)

Take care, and all the best to you! xx
