Hello everyone
I am new, this is my first post.
I have invasive breast cancer and had my op a few weeks ago. I’ve only known since August 4th so it’s been very fast and I’ve not had chance to process it all yet.
I'm a pretty positive person usually but it’s just me and my two daughters so thought I should find somewhere that I can get support or share stuff when I need to.
I hope everyone is kicking cancers backside
Hi and welcome to the Online Community, although I am so sorry to see you finding us and so sorry to hear about your diagnosis.
A cancer diagnosis 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 is organised into various support groups and I see you have found our Breast cancer
Follow the link I've created above then choose ‘click to join' on the page that opens.
You can then introduce yourself and post questions selecting '+New' or '+' (depending on the device you're using) and join in with existing discussions by clicking on 'reply'.
It’s always good to talk, our Macmillan support line is open every day from 8am to 8pm and it's free to call. Clicking here will give you more information on what the Support Line offers. Alternatively, if it's easier for you then you can email them or use the online chat.
Our Online Information and Support Section is a good place to find information covering cancer diagnosis, treatments and pages covering most types of cancers.
All the very best.
