Treatment for mastectomy

Hi Sarah, It is so good to hear from you and knowing that you are a sole provider and surviving. I too have taken the year off work and I miss the people so much even if I catch up with them as much as is possible. I am so glad that I have taken the time as I wouldn't be able to keep up with the pace. The only information I have is from this site and I belong to an American FB group who are the same as here. I also have an autoimmune disease which I was diagnosed with in January and which is triggered by cancer. So I have had to come off some of the drugs for that to do chemo and I am on 20mg prednisone...good old steroids hey!!! I am so sorry to hear about your depression and accident back in Oct..it never rains but it pours!!! That would have been terrible to cope with and then cancer. I wish you well with your mastectomy. I must say the op and recovery is not that bad. There is little or no pain after. It's just putting up with the drain and that is not that bad! I am on FECD chemo and I am not sure what hormone drug they are putting me on. I am meeting with the Breast Care Nurse on Wed. I am loosing my hair so I have been told so I am to Big W and the hairdresser. Thanks again for your encouragement. Healing hugs back to youx Mary
