Got my date....

Hi GWPowner64 welcome to hr forum and I dont think it matters what stage any Cancer is at its scarey for everyone including yourself..

Its good that you have a date and thats something to focus on the next stage in the fight to get of your little blighter. They wont know unfortunately the full details until they get that blighter out and send it to the lab for testing then they know for certain whats what for you.

Are there arrangement in for someone to pop in on your mum whilst you are recovering as you will be tired form the Anaesthetic to start with so you are gona need to rest. xxx   

Thank-you for replying.... reading through the other posts is so reassuring as I can see it’s normal to feel the way I do! 
luckily I have a close family so my brother and husband and nieces are all taking care of mum. I know as long as I’m brave they will be so I’m digging deep and keeping positive- it’s just when I’m by myself that I have a wobble.

I know I will need radiotherapy - does it hurt?? Then maybe chemo... then I have to take anastrozole for 5 years... bit worried about the side effects of that .... I am a worrier by personality but trying hard to keep those worries at bay.... 

Hi GWPowner64 in reply to the question about Radiotherapy does it hurt no it doesnt' and you wont know it is happening  except for all the palaver getting all your marks lined up on the treatment table its  an entertainment. If and when you do start Radiotherapy or chemo do pop into the Chemo and Radiotherapy threads on the Diagnosis and treatment thread as lots of advice in there as well. xxxx
