  • Glad you feeling good. I have a lumpectomy in 2 weeks, then the 2-3 week wait to find out what's next......

    Good luck xx 

  • I had a mastectomy in August 2019 followed by chemo FEC and T.  Not nice, but we can get through it and surprisingly you think it’s a never ending dark tunnel to navigate through, but suddenly you are out the other side and it’s all receding fast, so good luck with it all.  I’m sure everyone on here will give advice if you need it.  Keep smiling.

    Regards, Giuliella.
