@Spiv1803 Got your message and now trying to contact you. Yes, I am more than happy to come and chat and hopefully help with your fears. Glad we are both in Perth! I know you are scared, but it is doable one step at a time. There is a great support network here plus at your hospital. I am at Charles Gairdner and their Solaris Cancer Centre is amazing with huge support and free complementary therapy treatments eg massage, acupuncture, mindfulness meditation, library etc. I have my third chemo coming up soon, so still a newbie like you. Like you I had a lumpectomy then went back into hospital for all my lymph nodes to be removed in my right arm. I must say that for me, the surgery was the easy part. But we are all different and we are both very lucky to have lumpectomies and not major surgeries like some of the lovely ladies here. Hang in there and I will see you soon xxx
