I just joined today, I am Yvonne 42 ( I am 42 years old) and I have posted the recently diagnosed blog.
At the end of this week I am going for my first cycle of chemo. I have had my breast surgery- it was on the 29 September- a mastectomy of my right breast and axilla clearance.
My lump was 5 and a half cm long and a grade 3. Four cycles of chemo, every three weeks- up until the end of this year, followed by 5 weeks of radiotherapy.
How I found out, was I was experiencing a very very strange kind of pain around my right breast leading up to my period time. The full story is on the recently diagnosed blog.
Cheers
Yvonne.
