New here...my story so far
Hello,
I’m new the group and haven’t shared my story yet. It’s taken
me a little while to be able to read some of your stories and not have ‘freak out’
moments. Thank you to all of you for sharing...

Hi @sunrise_sunset
I never had a breast care nurse but never felt any lack - the senior oncology nurse at day oncology was brilliant, as was my surgeon’s nurse. The main thing is to get the support you need when and if you need it.
I got a serious infection 12 months in (caused by a persistent seroma) but my surgeon acted quickly and correctly, further surgery ended the seroma and the infection fast!!
Good luck with your chemo treatment - reactions vary a lot and are hard to predict, but sometimes it’s much easier than one fears. Best wishes.
