- Brenda5MemberYep only someone who has been through it can help, I get you. I was lucky enough the neighbour at the end of the street had just finished her treatment and gave me confidence all would be fine. I met another lady in the chemo room waiting for an appointment and she gave me her phone number and we had a bit of a chat about things. Don't forget hormones which in PMT are bad enough but they are going to suppress those with medication so the cancer has nothing to feed on and that's a challenge to live with too. Stick around here and you'll be fine. Try not to dwell too much on the actions of family and friends. They just don't know enough to help. <3
- HendrixMemberThanks Brenda
My story so far...surgery done clear margins...2 nodes positive...grade 2...er+ pr+ her2-...bone scan done...ct scan Monday meet oncologist Tuesday for stage results and treatment options. I've been pretty good as far as emotions go, but fear has set in this week. My problem is my family as in siblings. When I cry or get angry I feel like they shit me down...if I hear stay positive we are hear for you, I'm going to scream. I know they love me and are there for me, but are you if you don't allow me to ride this roller coaster...has anyone experienced this and how do you manage it. I'm now not talking about it with them and avoiding them. As you know the info is overload and struggle to process everything, it's very overwhelming and then I get a 100 questions from them. - onemargieMemberturned off the italics but have no idea how I did that either!!!

- Brenda5MemberNot sure what the view is if using iPhone but I use a laptop and its much easier to see everything. Post up your question in this thread again and we'll keep an eye out for it. <3
- HendrixMemberThank you Jane
i thought I did share my story..im having trouble navigating lol can you tell me where I can find what I wrote? - Hello @Hendrix, welcome. Hope you are doing OK. Feel free to share your story when you are ready. We have all gone through different diagnosis and treatment but we all share a common bond and you will always find someone to listen and offer support when needed. I am always amazed by the amount of information shared - we all start out knowing nothing! There is nothing easy about breast cancer but we get through it with help from the wonderful women and men on this forum. Remember you are not alone. Jane xx
- HendrixMemberLol I actually posted a question. I will see if I can find it.
