Hi Anna! welcome aboard, no it's not everyone's port of call however this forum is a great place to learn, research (all accredited info and as Ne said, not Dr Google), and to find support and or vent as we all have a breaking point and no one judges; we just try and pick up the pieces and let you know we're all in it together. The diagnosis for all is the same, Breast Cancer, but after that it is all so different - who'd thought there would be so many variables. Some of us struggle with side effects at different times as medication and or treatment comes with the hidden extras. Your occupation certainly puts you in good stead.
Wishing you and Miss Minx all the best
Take care from Christine
