Hi Everyone
My name is Karen and I was diagnosed with BC in July. I have had a lumpectomy and lymph nodes removed. I have had 4 cycles of TAC and have coped quite well considering. Emotionally thou...
HI karen, what you are feeling is normal. Your body has gone through some heavy stuff in the past few months. As Tonya said you don't need to be positive all the time, but just know in the back of your mind that although things are unfair at the moment you will be ok in the end.
Counseling and sites like this one are very helpful in making you feel that people really care. You will find that there are some really lovely ladies on here that have had the pain and suffering just like you. People do understand what you are feeling, and no one judges anyone. Dont worry about radiation, you will be fine. You may get some skin irritation towards the end and you may not , but hey you are having chemo and there is not much worse than that and you are surviving that. Good luck with your journey.
Cheers Jo xx
