Hi Marie. Pretty much everyone here has had or is undergoing treatment for breast cancer. There are thousands of threads here on thousands of topics!
If you'd like to, tell us a little about yourself and your diagnosis. Then people who have had similar to you can write to you about it.
For example, I was diagnosed last year at the age of 51 after a routine mammogram. My tumour was classed as early breast cancer but because of my bad family history I did further tests, had chemotherapy (called TC) and then a bilateral mastectomy. Today I found out that I have a gene mutation that greatly increased my chance of getting breast cancer as well as some other ones. My tumour was estrogen receptor positive (as about 75% of breast cancers are) so I'm taking a pill to stop estrogen in my body for five to ten years.
