@Danielle49 I remember the times when it was each breathe I had to take to just make it to the next one, its ok to feel overwhelmed by your diagnosis and waiting is hell ..... I personally dont call it my Journey it is my Roller coaster ride as I hate roller coasters.
Do you have a breast Care Nurse yet? here is a link to see where you local one is

I have found my Breast Care nurse to be both supportive and informative they often know of support groups locally if you need it.
we are here to listen and to support you .... yes other people don't understand it but they are also trying to come to terms with your diagnosis.
"be gentle with yourself" and know you will get the information you need and your will be working for the best possible outcome for you.
Hugs and energy
