Well its confirmed - im now another statistic. I havebreast cancer. Our lives have changed dorever and I've been thrown head first on this tumultuous journey. Im devastated and sad - oh so sad!! Its ...
I am now nearly at the end of my treatment and I can see the light at the end of the tunnel. After having 6 months off work to get through chemo I am now back at work on reduced hours and loving it - my collegues are so great and have welcomed me back. I am half way through my radio theraphy and am finding it to be more of a hassle than anything else!! I'm hoping that I can get through the next 15 days without too much burning or adverse sideeffects.
I wanted to say that although I didn't blog through the last 6 months I have found much comfort in reading everyone else's experiences and thoughts and they have really helped me get through this experience. This is such a great network and I still come here daily just to read through the posts - I find it really comforting.
I'm also wondering if anyone can offer advice with respect to Tamoxifen, which I am due to start at the end of radio (end of April). I'm concerned about the risk of uterine cancer and have opted to have a full hysterectomy in the next couple of months. I'm just wondering if anyone can offer advice on the procedure.
Thanks
