I have just joined this community. Tried to join Breast cancer forum. All I see is posts about how difficult it is to navigate. I agree! I don't think I will be bothering with this any further. It's just adding to the late night stress and worries and not helpful at all.
Hi and a very warm welcome to the online community
I'm very sorry that you've had difficulty joining the breast cancer forum and that you're finding the site difficult to navigate.
The online community has just had a major overhaul which is why you're seeing posts saying how difficult people are finding it. We are all still feeling our way around and part of my role as a Community Champion is to help people navigate to where they want to go.
I can see that you've found and posted in the ask a nurse section of the community and you should get a reply from one of the specialist nurses within a couple of working days.
To get to the Breast cancer forum (link) just click on the link I've created and then choose 'click to join' on the page that opens. You can then introduce yourself and post questions after selecting '+New' or '+' (depending on the type of device you're using) and join in with existing conversations by clicking on 'reply'.
If you have any further problems you could either have a look at the help page (link) or reply to my post and I'll do my best to help.
When you have a minute, it would be really useful if you could pop something about your journey so far into your profile as it really helps others when answering or looking for someone with a similar diagnosis. It also means that you don't have to keep repeating yourself. To do this click on your username and then select 'Profile'. You can amend it at any time and if you're not sure what to write you can take a look at mine by clicking on my username.
I hope you do join the breast cancer group as you'll find lots of people there willing to share their experiences and give you support.
