No worries @4Coco.
I see you are in Brisbane as I am. Where is your surgeon? I was treated privately at the Wesley and they were fantastic but there are other great hospitals here too. My chemo was at Icon and radium at Genesis. I'd you need any one in Brisbane to chat to you can always send me a private message.
This network helped me enormously during my treatment last year. I could not have got through without all the great people on here. You can ask anything, say anything and there is no judgement but lots of support and help.
Its hard at the diagnosis stage. It's overwhelming but getting the treatment plan and starting treatment is something that helps settle that overwhelming feeling. My only other advice is to stay in the moment and don't get too far ahead of yourself. Get your support network around you. Ask for help and accept help. Be kind to yourself. We have good days and bad and that's ok too.
Keep us informed on how you go and what you decide to do. Best care and a big hug x
