Hello Claudia
I also felt overwhelmed when I was first diagnosed but now six months down the track, the treatment becomes part of your new life and you become used to it. When I had my lumpectomy they didn't get clear margins so I had to have a second surgery 4 days later. And then I thought I was only having a few lymph nodes out. But after surgery, I was told that they had taken all of my lymph nodes out (27) and 17 of them had cancer. It threw me back for a while. But now I am just getting on with the rest of my treatments and trying to live life the best I can. I know it's hard but try to stay positive and battle on!!
