Hi,
I'm Angelina / Lina / Ang - I was diagnosed with breast cancer a couple of days before Christmas and have just been told that it is HER2 positive and I will need chemotherapy.
I would like to connect with people who have been through / are going through the same.
Hi Angelina 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 had treatment, including chemotherapy, for breast cancer 4 years ago.
The online community is divided into different support groups and I can see that you've already joined the breast cancer group which is a great place to connect directly with others who have the same type of cancer as you.
When you feel ready, 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 proposed 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.
