Just joined 26th Feb.

My journey began at the end of December, finding a lump, going to the Dr a week later...

After tests, my diagnosis was on 4th Feb.

I'm scheduled for a lumpectomy on 2nd March.

I'm lucky, I found it very early.

Struggling with how much has happened, and not sleeping.

My friends have been great, listening, but can't personally understand how things are - and how fatigued I am.

Hi RosieMJW! I’m also new here and received my initial diagnosis last week - still waiting for results and treatment options. No words of wisdom but I understand how you’re struggling - it’s so much to take in. Sending hugs x

Hiya,

I found the first bit particularly hard.

Kept waking early thinking I'd had a bad dream - then realising it was real.

Hoping i might sleep a bit better after the surgery is done.

Hugs back x

That’s pretty much my life right now - suddenly waking up in the early hours and realising this is actually happening. I hope all goes well with your surgery on Monday x
