Need Advice

Hi Jo,

I know how you feel regarding the waiting for treatment.  Nothing I did happened quickly.  I was on a waiting list for surgery, then chemo and it was nearly 7 months between surgery and radiotherapy.  The waiting around sure doesn't help our anxiety levels.  I am now ready to do some more research and will definitely get the book you have recommended.  The hardest part for me through all of this was having to make all the decisions myself.  No one was going to tell me or recommend to me what I should do.  I previously was very ignorant of breast cancer with no family history so the decisions were something I really stressed about and still worry about.  I chose chemo even if though it would not benefit me too much.  I managed to work through it but had about 1 week off each dose.  Radiotherapy was a breeze and I sailed through it only getting a bit tired by the third week.  I made a holiday of it on the coast and had a great time.  

All the best with your treatment
