Hi Airlie
Welcome to this site. I think this whole process is VERY frightening. My diagnosis was not the same as yours but still scared the life out of me. What course of treatment has been recommended for you? I have undergone a double mastectomy, radiation, chemo, reconstruction and now tamoxifen. It's been quite overwhelming at times but I got through. The fear of the future is something that I've learnt to live with and not dwell on but sometimes it's just hard work. I see that chemo has been tagged in your post (nothing pleasant about that) but it's not forever and some of it is quite manageable.
