The beginning of my BC Journey

Hi Avni!

So nice to hear from you.  It sounds like you have been on an absolute whirlwind of a time since your diagnosis last year!  I am interested to hear how yours travelled through lymph nodes to your bones.  I have been having alot of  back pain over last few months, had physio etc but nothing helped it.  They did a scan a few weeks back before discovering BC, so were looking at discs only and said I had 2 slipped discs.  I still have the back pain so have been curious as to whether it is in any way related to the BC.  I have my bone scan tomorrow and then surgeons appt following day to receive full diagnosis of grading and type and treatment plan.  Are  you in pain with your back?  Has the treatmet helped with the back at all?

I know what you mean about how all your perspectives in life change.  My family are all feeling that I think.  I finished up my client load at work today and will only work as I am able but with a non client load.  That was a biggie for me.  I have to focus on getting better from here on in.  My hairdreser dyed my hair a bright colour this last week as I know that after this I will take control and cut it short before the chemo takes the lot.  I'm trying to think of ways I can funk up my head with no hair! 

You sound so brave for alll you have been through.  October is only 4 months back so you seem to be really positive for this early in the journey.  Thanks for your inspiration.  I will be thinking all the positive thoughts from here on in.

Love Linda x
