Hi To you all, am feeling very isolated both from a covid angle and my cancer angle. I was diagnosed with breast cancer last year and had a lumpectomy and radiotherapy but am still suffering breast pain and feel my usual network of support is in limbo.

  • Hi  and welcome to the Online Community, although I am sorry to see you finding us and so sorry to hear you are struggling and isolated but I am pleased to say that you have found a safe place to find some support.

    Post treatment indeed brings a lot of confusion, stress and many questions but I found talking with other people who are on the same type of journey helped a lot. 

    The Community has many dedicated support groups so can I direct you to our supportive Breast cancer group

    Follow the link I've created above, join the group, then hit ‘start a discussion’ and you are ready to go.

    You could then copy and paste the information from this first post into your new discussion or you can just join in with existing ‘Discussions’ by clicking on 'reply'.

    It’s always good to talk, so can I highlight the Macmillan Support Line on 0808 808 00 00. This service covers Emotional Support, Practical Information. Clinical Information, Financial Support and Work Guidance mostly open 8.00 to 8.00

    All the very best and ((hugs))
