Hi I’ve had my surgery 2 weeks ago unfortunately I need more surgery as there is still pre cancerous cells left behind. stating chemo on Wednesday, 15 sessions of it plus herceptin and I’m terrified. I wish it would all just go away and I can get on with life with my children ( I’m 35 ) who need me know not in more than 12 months time when this is all over .

  • Hi

    My story on profile just click on my name and have a read .

    I had MX last July followed by chemo EC x6 now on Herceptin til Jan 2021 .

    My advice to you is breathe ........ I know it's hard especially when you have young children but you can do it . 

    You are stronger than you think and you have your family to fight for .

    Chemo is not as bad as your imagination is telling you it not pleasant but it is doable  . 

    Have a look at April 2020 chemo thread lots of info on there also a link to helpful hints on first page 

    post any questions you have on April chemo thread you will get all the info you need 

    we are always here to help and support

    That's quite understandable to be overwhelmed by it all. But you will get through this. Rest, easier said than done with children. I hope you have someone to help you. Always here to support you.
