Hi
iI had mastectomy middle of august this year And am still having some issues with my scar especially where the drain was, the biggest issue I have is with my armpit area it gets really sore here.
i have had good oncontype result and don’t need chemotherapy so just having tamoxifen as treatment.
I coped really well throughout but recently find it more and more difficult to get the cancer off my mind, and even though I know it’s good not to have the chemo it worries me that there is something left and not having treatment will cause it to spread, silly I know as no breast there to spread into but can’t help the anxiety and because I’ve had such a brave face since day one and positive attitude as far as my family is concerned I don’t want to tell them I’m not coping well.
i suppose I’m trying to say we all have our good days and bad ones and that is perfectly normal for us, but reaching out to others is the best way forward for support and help they say.
hoping that this low mood, anxiety goes soon, can’t keep up the pretence all is well when I just want to screem, is this down to the tamoxifen I wonder
