Hi ladies ,
Today marks a year since I was diagnosed with breast cancer. ER and PR + , HER _ with 1 node affected!
I have undergone a mastectomy , 6 months of chemo and 6 weeks of radiotherapy and am...
I think the only way to "cope"and not go mad with worry is to lock the thoughts away in the back of your head... not bury them as we must be alert for any changes etc., but canceritis can really destroy the future for us.
My doctor said that if anything started up new, wait for 2 weeks before seeing her- the rotten thing is that we DO get normal things too, like sinus infections, bad headaches, sore limbs!! After all that we go through I think that is very unfair (said with a grimace/smile, girls!).
Enjoy each day is the mantra so many of us live by.
