My journey begins..

Hi Lou, welome to this site. You will find lots of support and encouragement here. There is also a wealth of informataion here, so just ask. Congratulations on surviving the first 2 rounds of chemo. At least with the next 2, you know what to expect, which in itself, makes it not so scarey. I am now 18 months post diagnosis. At the beginning it is hard to imagine that you will ever get to the end, but it does happen, and surprisingly fast. I was bald, but have now had 5 haircuts since my hair started to return last September. I have also completed reconstruction with implants, a full 3 months ago. There will be many years of follow up from Drs, but these are mostly reassuring appointments, so not like the earlier appointments. I have opted for a double mastectomy, so now have 2 new perky boobs, that I am very happy with. Good luck with your "journey", and I hope it won't be too bad. Love Chris xx
