Hi Hopefull, sorry to hear that you need chemo as well as radiotherapy, but it is good that you do not need more surgery. At least with chemo and radiotherapy, you are throwing everything at this cancer, and you will be ok. I didn't have the radiotherapy, but I did have extra surgery, lumpectomy followed by a mastecomy, and then 4 rounds of chemo. That all finished over 5 months ago, and it is hard to believe that it is all now behind me. It is hard to see a light at the end of the tunnel before you begin, but the time did go quickly. I was also very lucky and didn't get bad side effects from the chemo, so I hope that you too can have an ok time with it. All the best with the next stage of your cancer journey. Love Chris xxx
