I was diagnosed with early breast cancer last Thursday. I don't see my medical team til the 11th and each day feels like a month! One minute I'm happy that it's small and detected early, the next I'm ...

Hi Jen,
I was searching on this site re seroma and came across your blog post and wanted to say that I felt a connection with your words re early detection and how people keep telling you that you are lucky. I really have been feeling the same way and have been getting similar reactions since my diagnoses on 19 August this year. I was hoping to add you as a contact (this is all new to me still) but wanted to follow your journey and let you know that you are not alone in how you are feeling. I had surgery 12 days ago and have also developed a seroma which I went in to have drained for the first time today. It was like an instant relief and I was glad to know that it is fairly common. I still have a lot of decisions to make about my treatment options and feeling very confused, scared and angry but trying to be the positive person I have always been. I've found it therapeutic to go on this site since I've been stuck at home recovering.
