Recent diagnosis

Hello yes it's scarey and the shock is great.  My experience was much the same as yours, I'm 50 6 lympths positive 2 cancer growths.   I was diagnosed June had lumpectomy and node removal dreaded word cancer cells in lympth nodes.  I then had mastectomy and am now half way through chemo to be followed by radio.  I was fit and healthy ( I thought ) one day at a time one treatment at a time helps.  I still walk most days though gym is out for the moment.  I guess the important thing to remember is that chemo and treatment are used to ensure that the cancer cells are killed should they of escaped the nodes and there's a huge success rate.  This is a lovely group of people all going through the same xxx keep your strength and mental attitude up and know you can ask anything here and someone will respond
