Cry heaps, believe it or not it helps. I think I cried every day for the first 4 to 6 weeks after I was diagnosed. I still cry now even though I know what to expect.
Once you have your surgery everything will settle down. You will have a plan for treatment and then it's a matter of taking one day at a time. I found out the results about my BC when I visited the surgeon after I had my lump and 3 nodes removed. I didn't listen or want to know what was happening. So take someone with you.. it wasn't till last week that I went back to my GP to get her to explain. So take your time.
I've had my first round of Chemo and have my second this Thursday. I'm having a total of 18 weeks Chemo and then radium...plus the hormone blocking tablets for 5 years. Remember it's 'Early Breast Cancer' and you will get through it. Some one told me it is like a game of 'Snakes and Ladders'.. ups and downs...but eventually you will get there.
Sending you a 'big hug'.. and keep blogging. There are many people here for you and what you write helps others.
