Hi Bj What an ordeal you have been through. No wonder you were shocked and bewildered when you were given the diagnosis. How awesome is it when the drains come out! I was sooo happy to get rid of both of mine. It's great your partner is supportive of you and your journey. Hoping for great news for you with the results!

All the best for your ongoing recovery!
Thanks for your messageMay2024 that’s great advice re Physio. I’ll chat with the BC nurse about recommendations.
I hope your own recovery is going well x
Bj Thank you so much for sharing your story. It takes courage to speak openly about personal experiences, and your honesty is truly appreciated.
Great advice from May2024 re engaging with physio, which reminded me of Breast Cancer Network Australia's Strengthen Your Recovery' Pilates Program you may want to explore. It’s designed to help people rebuild physically and emotionally after treatment, offering practical tools and guidance.
