I was saddened to read your blog. Yes you have been so cheery and helpful and have got through so much.... and that's just it. BC is such a challenging battle with so many wonderful people to help you on the way....then...nothing. Once I returned to work after my first diagnosis I just couldn't cope. I had changed but others hadn't. I found it difficult to "mould back to normal". I saw a Psychologist for weeks. I don't like taking pills either but when they are needed to get us back to some normality after such a challenge then so be it. At the recent Strength 2 Strength conference, it was noted that a Psychologist is now included in the treatment team for bc patients. You are just fitting into the "normal" range. As Moira stated don't feel hesitant to discuss it with your GP. XLeonie
