    Hi all
    Hi everyone, thought I'd finally join in as my percentages took a nose dive yesterday from 2 yrs to 4 months, aparently even though my bowel and liver are now clear, the masses in my lungs have snuck up past the 1cm mark and have been counted.

    I was diagnosed with breast cancer earlier this year and had a mastectomy. Since then I have been very tearful and emotional at times. I was very lucky as it was caught early and radiotherpy and cheom were not needed. I just have to take letrozol for 5 years. I feel that I really should be on top of the world and not be tearful as I am and have been very lucky not to have to go through further treatment. It would be lovely to hear from anyone who has been through a similar situation and is emotional...

    Anitalove just hit on me. Blocked and reported it.
    anitalove personal messaged me. What a crazy awful, spiteful waste of space that is. Cruel, vindictive and down right stupid if you ask me. I have reported and blocked it. Anyone else had prob with him/her??? Dawn
