Hi all , I’m new to this so please bare with me , so I was diagnosed with stage 2b HER 2 negative breat cancer in September last year , long story short , here I am 3 ops , 6 months of chemotherapy and 15 rounds of radiation therapy later , but as it had gone to my lymph nodes they won’t say I’m cancer free but I think I’m out of the woods now, so it make’s absolutely no sense that I feel worse than ever !! , for the  last  year all I did was count down every appointment/ treatment excited for the day it was finally done, and obviously I don’t miss the ops and the horrible side effects of chemotherapy, and the burns from radiation, I guess I just feel a little lost I genuinely do not know what to think or feel at the moment. And I hate that I’m not able to feel excited and happy , but the more people I chat with, it becomes more and more clear this is a completely normal reaction , cancer diagnosis and everything that comes with it is traumatic and life changing , so to all my fellow warriors give yourselfs a break xxx
