Scared !!!

Does anyone know if I'll need Radiation or Chemo? How will it effect my husband an...
Hi,
Feeling for you, having been diagnosed 6 months ago. For me the unknown was the scariest thing of all. Once I had met with my team and knew my staging and the plan, I started focusing on each step and not looking any further than that.
i am stage 2, with 5 nodes involved. Had an axillary clearance and lumpectomy, which ended up not having clear margins , so a partial mastectomy was performed. I have just finished 6 cycles of chemo and thankfully had minimal side effects. I start rad on Monday (30 days!) and will begin hormone therapy.
Def get the BCNA kit, helped me alot to in the first few weeks of diagonisis. When you go for your appointments, take a pen and p
Hun, take each day as it comes, let the tears flow (better out than in) and be kind to yourself.
Focus on surgery and getting over that.
Sending massive hugs to you and know I'm thinking of you and here for you anytime.
xxxxxxxxxx
