Hi, I've just been diagnosed with high grade DCIS, but I'm struggling with how to feel about it. I'm feeling stressed about the surgery and possible radiotherapy. I have been told to stop my hrt, so I'm worried about that aswell. I'm struggling to focus at work at the moment.

However, the consultant likes to say it's not cancer because of the fact it's not an invasive cancer at this stage. This 'not cancer' line and response they give makes it feel as though it should be a walk in the park and that I have no right to feel the way I do.

  • Hi  and a very warm welcome to the online community which I hope you'll find is both an informative and supportive place to be.

    I can see that you've already joined and posted in the breast cancer forum which is a great place to connect with others who have DCIS.
