I'm a 34 year old mum of one and I was diagnosed with breast cancer in July. I'm due to start chemo in 2 days and I'm freaked out!!!! I had a lumpectomy and feel like I've done a whole lot of waiting since and have had too much time to think! Just wanted to say hi!!
Where abouts in sydney?? Hmmmm maybe worth inquiring through my health fund then!! Thanks for that. I'm not as anxious as I would have been if I didn't have a portacath...seems that's going to save a lot of hassle. Sooner I start sooner I finish I say. Hope you are traveling ok. Take care xo
Wow I'm so glad I made contact, it's really nice to talk to people my age having the same experience. I'm having TAC for 6 sessions then 6 weeks of radiation. It's crazy the whole hair thing isn't it?? Of all we have been through it blows me away thats what bothers me the most! Would love to hear more about your journey. Where abouts are you from? I'm in nsw in Wollongong.
Take care and hope to talk soon xo
It's great to hear from someone who gets it although I wish no one had to! My chemo starts tomorrow and I'm also having TAC!! Of all the insane things going on how is it the hair thing is what freaks us out the most? Would love to hear how you go with the naturopath as I've been thinking about that too. Fear of the unknown is my biggest battle along with controlling my mind, I'm off to see a counsellor today just to vent more than anything else.
Goodluck to you too and I hope to talk again xo
