Breast Cancer diagnosed 2 December 2018

Thankyou Primek. It certainly is a ride. It brings lots of thoughts to mind. How precious each day is. 💖💖💖

Hi Shellshocked2018
Sorry to see you here also. When will you get your results. I hope you are not in too much pain. What sort of Surgery did you have, if you don't mind me asking? My love is with you all. 💖💖💖

It certainly is a ride at the beginning and the season of Xmas makes us reflect on our "near miss" and how precious our time with our families are. Welcome to the forum. 

Sorry to see you here Purplepea but welcome.
You have come to the right place for support and to ask any question that you may have answered by one of these wonderful people.
We here all know to well what you are feeling and going through.
I was recently diagnosed late October with triple negative breast cancer, just had surgery two days ago waiting results.
Take one day at a time and breath.
We are all here anytime.
sending cyber hugs ❤️

Thankyou Sister. xx

Sorry to see you here @purplepea but glad you have found us.  Rest up, do your exercises, let you family spoil you and try to breathe and come online when you need some info, support or the odd laugh.

Terrific that you have such good support, @Purplepea ..... Great that you are in control of the pain, always a bonus.

Thankyou arpie. I much appreciate your response. I haven't had to take painkillers for a couple of days now which is good. I have a pillow. It is very helpful. I feel very blessed that my family and friends are so supportive. I don't know what I would do without them. xx

So sorry to see you here, @Purplepea - but welcome - you are in the right spot for support & buddies who've been thru it before you

It is Totally normal to feel a bit flat after all that - even a bit down and a full range of emotions.  A good cry can be quite cathartic, too!!  

From detection to surgery is always a big blur - have you received your pathology results yet?  That is often a big wait too!  

If you have any questions about anything - whack them up either here or in a thread of their own ......

Take care, make haste slowly - enjoy Xmas & New Year -  make sure that everyone spoils you rotten!   ;)   Make sure you keep taking your pain meds until you are sure you don't need them!!  ;)   Do you have a small long pillow to help prop up the arm of the affected side ..... it can help with your comfort, particularly when sleeping.

cheerio for now xx
