I was diagnosed with primary breast cancer 5 years ago last February. I was due to get my final Mammogram and consultation back in April, but because of the lockdown, it was understandably put on hold. I have been struggling this past year fearing the cancer coming back. Ive always worried about this, especially because it is year five. And I know it's only a few months delay, but my anxiety is off the scale.
Other people have undoubtedly been going through the same thing, so I was wondering whether they could help me see how they have coped, and hopefully it will help.
Today I received a phone call from my Oncologist, a week after my Mammogram. He said there was no sign of cancer and therefore I've been signed off, but he recommended five more years taking Anasozole. I cannot tell you how relieved I was. As soon as the call ended I burst into tears. Five years of worry did that. I told my family, friends and work colleagues and they we're delighted fo
me. I hope anyone here and out there in the world gets good news too. Now I can breathe
