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 AnasSparkling heartozole.  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 foSparkling heartme.  I hope anyone here and out there in the world gets good news too. Now I can breathe Sparkling heartSparkling heart

  • Great news .  I'm not far behind you.  Diagnosed June 2015 but every year my annual mammogram has been later.  Last year it was in November so I'm expecting Xmas time this year.  On he plus side it gives me an extra 6 months reassurance!
