DCIS

Hi, I don’t think that you are alone in feeling like this. Having cancer has a massive impact on your life and it is emotional! Keep your chin up and remember that you are a survivor! X

Thank you for your kind words. I know I'm incredibly lucky . I should have probably talked to someone more at the time. My family were amazing but I probably needed to talk to someone outside of my family and friends as I felt so scared but didn't want to show it. 

I'm a 3 years ahead of you, click on my name to read my profile, and I still stress and worry.   Didn't see it coming first time so think I won't next time!  Every annual mammogram brings the stress back xx

I know where you are coming from. I get really stressed each year for my mammogram and now I'm stressing about when the annual checks come to an end as I'm worrying that as I had no idea I had DCIS it could occur in the other breast. I'm wondering if I can ask my Breast consultant to repeat them every year after the normal 5 years are up x

I asked and was told no so back on 3 year which coincidentally meant I had one at year 6.

I have a feeling I will be told the same but I can only ask too.  Thank you for replying to my messages.  I was really at a loss as to who I could talk to and its good to know I'm not the only one feeling emotional and stressed even after all this time x
