Re: What did you do to mark the end of active treatment?
Brought in a basket of 32 scones complete with jams and cream for the staff. A bit deflated leaving. Not at all prepared for the mental anguish I would encounter after being brave and strong for my family since the start of this diagnosis.11Views2likes0CommentsRe: 6 months Post DCIS now heart failure at 57
I was diagnosed with a congenital faulty aortic valve with a large aneurysm to boot. This was found during the work up to left breast cancer 2 years ago. Went through lumpectomy and radiation then one year later open heart surgery. It was a roller coaster of a recovery but would do it all over again compared to the mental torture of the potential presence of cancer hanging over you for the rest of your life! Check out the Australianhearthealth.org.au or heartstart. All the best5Views1like0CommentsBreast pain 2 years post
Hello all, just want to confirm that breast pain post surgery/radiation is a long term thing? I read somewhere at the beginning of my journey that you should expect 12 months of breast pain/discomfort but it really hasn’t let up at all. My breast is sore to palpate all the time and, even tho I haven’t had a period in 8 months, I feel it may be cyclic/hormonal. It gets hard and aches.. Thanks for your help.408Views1like14Comments- 24Views0likes0Comments
