Breast cancer at 31

I had my appt with my oncologist on Friday and she confirmed the area under my mx scar which I was slightly worried/curious about is intact my ribs! It made me laugh! She was very thorough with her examination and answered all my questions and I felt loads better... I get a stress build up in the few days leading up to any of my hospital appointments (except chemo), I even had tears of relief in the car on the way home…

Had my pre chemo bloods today and also went to a look good feel better workshop, it was great and lovely to meet and chat to other women going through similar things and all offs at different stages through our treatment and able to share experiences and tips.
