Recently diagnosed - Finally reaching out.
Hi friends I was diagnosed at the end of September after my first ever mammogram. I had turned 50 in August & thought I had better have it done. What a shock it was. My tumour was 6cm & I had cancer...
Hi @dizee I am a fellow Adelaidean. I know how the shock can be so overwhelming. But you've started on treatment which always helps. There is an Adelaide Breast Cancer facebook group if you're interested (and I think the moderator lives in Dernancourt). Where are you having chemo? I was at Adelaide Oncology (attached to Calvary) and tried cold caps. Unfortunately, they didn't work well enough for me to continue. Calvary have a rehab exercise clinic at Walkerville but there are others around, too (Lift at the Tennyson Centre comes to mind).
