Hi, I’m Kay, and I was diagnosed with aggressive breast cancer. I would like to connect with someone who is going through it, or has gone through it. I already had my first chemo treatment, and first post treatment injections. My body is not responding too well, so I would like to talk about post treatment symptoms. In general, I need a friendly voice.
Hi KAY.S and a very warm welcome to the online community which I hope you'll both find is both an informative and supportive place to be.
I'm sorry to read that you've recently been diagnosed with an aggressive form of breast cancer and that your body isn't responding well to the chemo and injections.
The online community is divided into different support forums so I'm going to recommend that you join the breast cancer forum where you can ask questions, share experiences and get support.
To join just click on the link I've created and, once you've joined, you can start a new post in the same way as you did here and join in with existing conversations by clicking on 'reply'.
It would be great if you could put something about your diagnosis and treatment so far into your profile as it really helps others when replying to you and also when looking for someone on a similar pathway. 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.
If you have any problems negotiating the community just reply to me and I'll be pleased to help if I can.
Whatever cancer throws your way, we’re right there with you.
We’re here to provide physical, financial and emotional support.
