since being diagnosed with DCIS the rlationship with my partner has taken a turn for the worst. I am 61 and we have been living together for 2 years and dating 2 years peior to that.

Hi, I'm new to this kind of discussion so please be patient with me. I was diagnosed with metastasic breast cancer last year. So far with chemotherapy I feel relatively good. But now it is the time of a PAP smear and I so don't want to do it. I'm so scared they find anything. Not that there are any reasons to believe they…

I was diagnosed on Friday with an Invasive Ductal Carcinoma in my right breast. I am in shock. It is small and they have found it early which is all positive. But why do I feel so bad and scared.

I guess part of the frustration has been that feeling of helplessness that we all know so well from our dealings with Breast Cancer. It was not possible, no matter how hard we tried, to 'fix this'. We had to just trust that those who could, would…
Brain surgery I can deal with but the protocal of public with Sir Charles Gardner is an absolute nightmare. If I was not already being treated for major depression I most certainly would be now. I honestly think some of the front line receptionists need a career change. I admire two surgeons so far who have phoned me well…
