Hi,
Recently been diagnosed with cancer of both breast and 2 bones in my spine. Feeling very emotional and scared as there is no cure. Started treatment 2 weeks ago. On my third week of treatment hospital appointments coming out of my ears so overwhelming. I am actually struggling here with how to express myself in writing.
Hi Princess 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’m Anne, one of the Community Champions here on the Online Community and I was diagnosed with breast cancer in 2022 so know how overwhelming being diagnosed with cancer can be.
The online community is divided into different support groups and, from how you've described your cancer, I'm assuming you've been diagnosed with breast cancer which has spread to your bones. If this is right, and my apologies if I've got it wrong, I'm going to recommend that you join the secondary breast cancer group, which is a great place to 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 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.

You'll soon get the hang of it but just reply to me if you have any problems and I'll do my best to help.
