Hi Kaye,
My best advice is stay in contact with the extraordinary women here. They are just wonderful. I was diagnosed beginning of October, had a single mastectomy (RH) on the 18th. I go to the oncologist on the 22nd Nov.
My second best advice is to slow down (rich coming from me because I overdid it yesterday and couldn't even cook dinner) and don't push getting well too quickly or too hard.
As Deanne said, it is a roller coaster of emotions, some days you fall to pieces, other days you're fine, strong and ready to take on more. Just go with it.
Jodie and I were operated on on the same day, different towns and hospitals so we're only a few weeks ahead of you. Welcome !
