Good morning everyone,
im new here so just wanted to say hello to everyone and introduce myself.
im 46 and had a shock diagnosis of stage 4 cancer in May. Originally breast cancer which was missed it has now developed on my lungs, liver, spine/bones.
Ive had a bit of a traumatic summer being in hospital for over 12 weeks since June! I’m home now though
had a little radiotherapy and now receiving chemo.
im looking forward to connecting with people who may have share experiences with me.
hope everyone is doing well and is able to enjoy today as much as they can.
bye for now Nic x
Hi Nicola1980
Welcome to the MacMillan community. I am sorry you have been diagnosed with stage 4 breast cancer. It must have been a horrible shock and I hope you are now settled into a treatment programme that is managing it. I am a fellow traveller, living with stage 4 breast cancer since 2022.
Our community is divided into forums by cancer type / experience, so you might like to join sone or all of the following forums. I am a community champion on those pages. Sadly there are lots of people with breast cancer, and with secondary breast cancer, but it makes for a good supportive community.
