Re: New Diagnosis HER2 negative
Thanks Cath62 yes I’m hormone positive already on anastrazole to slow the cancer growth not sleeping too well… trying to keep things normal but struggling. Exercise and work is good but I do feel very vague headed and nauseous… wondering if it could be the medication? I’m lucky that o do have a great group of friends around me I just feel like I’d like to wake up and it all to be over!!!8Views0likes0CommentsRe: New Diagnosis HER2 negative
Thanks! So much information to take in. My brain just doesn’t seem to be functioning as well as normal!! Having mastectomy (left breast) with DIEP flap reconstruction and reduction on the right so I’m not lop sided!!! The only positive was the surgeon saying I was ‘skinny’ and there was only just enough tummy fat for the one side!!!! Op booked for August.. not a cheap exercise is it!?? Have had scans and tests… so glad to have the discussions to read and take advice from, thanks to everyone for sharing Feeling pretty scared, good days and not so good days, but trying to stay positive I’m a control freak so this whole thing is hard as so out of my control😩9Views0likes0Comments
