Hello Nadi:)I had exactly the same as you 2 years ago this month! My husband was overseas when I was diagnosed.The first couple of weeks are a real blur,but as soon as you have had your appointment with the surgeon,you will find that things settle down.You will most likely be given a date for surgery,and in my case it was about 2 weeks after my appointment. I found that this time gave me some breathing space after the initial shock.I had a mastectomy followed by chemo,and now I am on Tamoxifen.I have never felt better in my life:) Try to remember that breast cancer these days ,in most cases,is very treatable.Stay connected on here ,as you won't find a better place for help,advice and just general support.There is someone here 24/7. Take each day as it comes,and DONT look ahead.You can do this!! Cheers Robyn xox
