Hiya everyone, iv just joined and not to sure what im doing! i would love to talk to people who are going through the same difficulties and emotions that cancer throws at you.
Im 32 and have a fantastic husband and 2 great children but 2 weeks before xmas i was told that i had breast cancer in my right breast which had spread to my armpit and lymph nodes in my neck. i had been going to my GP for 12 months previous because of a lump in my breast and neck but he assured me it was a sports injury.
I had my last chemo in April- thankgod! and 2 weeks ago i had a masectomy. i saw my oncologist yesterday to talk about my radiopherapy, he was pleased with my operation as the tumours in my armpit , neck and breast had more or less gone, which is great but know i have got to have a MRI scan because my last CT scan showed a thickening in the bones of my back, but he seems to think it is a side effect of the chemo, -has anyone else experienced this? is it normal?
Two weeks ago i felt like i could see light at the end of the tunnel, but now i feel like im in the dark again and im cracking up. Up until now i have been really posative and have only cried a handful of times, but now i feel sick when i see myself in the mirror and cry all the time. im scared that im not gonna be here for my kids............................................... please let there be other people out there like me.
