Newly Diagnosed
Hi there... Well the last 6 weeks have been a bit of a ride .... microcalcifications on mammogram, biopsy, and then surgery to take a larger sample for a more definitive diagnosis to my diagnosis yes...
I want to tell you how much this website helped me at the start, and all the way through my experience with TNBC. I learnt how different we all are, how each person has a story, and how there is only one you so try not to assume the worst. Do as I did, hope for the best! I wont ever forget the day I was told I had Cancer, and although I am now back at work and it is 10 months since I finished all my crazy treatments, I will always be grateful to the lovely ladies who reassured me on here. You will be ok, take one day at a time, be kind to yourself, try not to worry, were the words I read. I experienced great things by reaching out to my local Cancer Council, and it soon became my second home. As daunting as it all was, it was all do-able. The "My Journey Kit" was like a bible for me, the Counselling I recieved kept my head together, and the Pilates DVD is a great source of relaxation and stretching. Apparently, staying stress-free is as important as what you eat, I have been told. Worry, anxiety is an energy sapper, so I wish you well, and be like a Monk and learn how to meditate! X Bel
