Hi everyone, I'm 30 yrs old & was diagnosed with Stage 3 cancer in 2010. I've been tested positive for the BRCA2 gene. I've gone thru all the chemo & radio, mast's & at the mo I'm half way thru recon...
I cant help much, I had a diff recon than u (tissue expanders replaced by silicone implants) but I got heaps of my arm strength back by doing Personal Training sessions, expensive but worth it ! What state r u from? there are free excercise programs out there that are for breast cancer patients and can be very helpful as well as a good chance to meet other women who have been thru it too... a very popular one is dragonboating! :)
